I recently had the pleasure of dining at Awesum Dimsum in New York City’s East Village. Their Kung Pao Chicken was a standout dish - spicy, savory, and full of flavor. The chicken was cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of crunch from the peanuts and vegetables. I loved how the flavors all came together to create a truly authentic Chinese experience.

For my main course, I opted for the Egg Foo Young at Awesum Dimsum. This Cantonese classic did not disappoint! The omelette was fluffy and light, with a delicate egg flavor that paired perfectly with the savory sauce. I appreciated how the dish was served with a side of steamed vegetables, adding a burst of freshness to each bite.

As for sides, their Fried Rice was a great choice. Cooked just right, it had a perfect balance of crunchy and soft textures.
