that said (and I have to disclose I hardly eat out these days) but the best dim sum I’ve had was the Shang Palace in Paris (which has a Michelin macaroon) and best Cantonese meal was at the restaurant attached to the Sukasol in Bangkok, and I’d be willing to try the dim sum there if offered.
So glad I was able to visit Tim Ho Wan when it was a single outpost hole-in-the-wall known as the "cheapest Michelin starred restaurant in the world." Really good. I've never been to another, and unlikely to go to the Jollibee-owned international chain version with the same name.
