The Metropol is the absolute go to place when guests are in town who want no-nonsense dim sum that is of good quality, affordable and without any of the touristy drama. The place is also great for big group dining. The good is consistently good and they have all my favourites, including char siu tzan bao (is that how you spell it?). Important to remember: this place is popular with locals so it fills up fast at lunchtime. If you're on a tight schedule, better book in advance, memorize the bookin
Important to remember: this place is popular with locals so it fills up fast at lunchtime. If you're on a tight schedule, better book in advance, memorize the booking code they give you over the phone and remember that even with that booking code, you may still have to wait up to ten minutes when you get there. It's worth the wait though!
The restaurant is absolutely huge, but there are several ladies moving through the aisles of tables, pushing their carts with all the yummy stuff... Spring rolls, deep fried squid tentacles, egg tarts, crispy pieces of suckling pig, congee, har gao, siu mei, char siu bao, lau sa bao, cheung fan, and much more... It's great fun to check what's in all the different bamboo steamers. You can't be shy though because the ladies will move on if you don't stop them; they don't have time for indecisive tourists (....and quite rightly so, there are many diners who're on a very short lunch break and who need sustenance and cannot afford to wait for people being awkward. This restaurant is fun for tourists but it is not a designated tourist attraction. People mean business here....LOL)
题外话/补充资料：
Be proactive and check out what's cooking at the station in the middle of the restaurant where there are spring onion cakes, bell peppers stuffed with fish paste and other delights.
