House of Hong’s dining room is one of the most diverse places in the city; people of all ethnicities love House of Hong!

I don’t go there anymore, but it’s where my dim sum odyssey began. At first it seemed like there is an endless variety, but after a while, we started to notice that that same shrimp ball is just being fried in 20 different ways. So we started to go to the other dim sum houses in the ID, where there were more Cantonese people and more exotic offerings.
