Purple Dot Cafe

During high traffic times on weekends, the wait for a table was pretty fast. We only waited a few moments. The shumai was not conventional, but was still tasty. They had a plethora of other classic dimsum options like pheonix claws, rice rolls and turnip cake.

We decided on this place because Honey Court was packed. The minute we walked in, it was clear they'd just cleaned the floors, the smell of cleaning stuff was pretty strong. It eased up enough for us to stick around for a meal, otherwise we might've just grabbed a takeout. We got 1 soda, shredded pork with crispy chow mein, fish and chips, beef tendon, fried oysters, and some white rice. The chow mein was okayish, the deep-fried oysters were fresh but the batter was a bit too greasy for my liking, the beef tendon was tender and had a okay taste, the fish was nothing special and we've had better before. All came to about $94 The staff were on the ball, making sure our tea pots were topped off and we had enough napkins, and they checked in with us regularly to see if everything was okay. They were even nice enough to check with everyone in the restaurant to see if they wanted to order anything else before the kitchen shut down for the night in 13 minutes. All in all, the food wasn't grea

Needed something to eat after getting out of the airport. Discovered this place on my way back to the hotel. Was surprised to see how busy it was even at midnight. The menu was huge and the food was delicious! Definitely comparable to the local eateries in Brooklyn. I was pleasantly surprised.
