If you can’t make it out to Chinatown, I found you a good alternative in the Ala Moana area. Forget going to Jade Seafood, check out Yung Yee Kee! We came right at opening time on a Sunday and there was absolutely no wait. We ate yummy dim sum to full satisfaction and was off on our merry way. I thought the flavors were good and comparable to Chinatown so do it!!!
Chicken Feet with Black Bean | $6.50
I know, I know. Not many of you like chicken feet, I get it. I grew up eating this which is why I am able to eat it. Juicy and flavorful, I would recommend this dish if you like chicken feet!
Pork Hash with Shrimp (Siu Mai) | $6.50
Yum, a classic and always a favorite of mine. Nothing memorable but nothing bad which is good. I would get it again because I just like siu mai.
Seafood Bundle | $7.50
One of my favorite dim sum dishes, it usually includes a piece of fish, shrimp, scallop and a whole shiitake mushroom wrapped in tofu skin (yuba).
Signature Steamed Beef Tripe | $7.50
Another dish not everyone can eat. This was nicely seasoned but had a strong white pepper taste. Good but no wow factor.
Shrimp & Chives Dumplings | $7.50
I like to get this in dim sum restaurants but I like when they pan fry it and steam too. This one is more dry on the outside, tasted good but I guess I like it more like potsticker style.
Mochi Puffs w/Pork | $6.50
Deep Fried Shrimp Dumplings | $6.00
Taro Puffs | $6.50
Good! Nice amount of filling! Tastes great.
Stir-Fried Sticky Rice | $8.50
Meh. I can make this way better. I will make this way better. 🙂
Look Funn w/Beef | $7.50
Basic, simple, good.
Nice!
*thumbs up*
I am not a dim sum person. I love noodles and more noodles so I would go for the look funn. Looks yummy!
Ahhh, dim sum is one of my favorites! There’s so much variety in them too! Maybe you haven’t tried ones you’ve liked yet?

Agree! I would definitely stick to Chinatown as much as I can!!!

It is…I am salivating and wanting to go eat there again already!
