Alex, if you are in NYC, you might try the restaurant
on Mott Street on the corner of something or other
on the right as you walk south from Canal Street. The
restaurant is more than halfway down Mott. I remember
neither the name nor the cross street, since I find my
way there through some sort of homing device. Perhaps
it is not the best Dim Sum place around, but it is my
place, and I like it. It's been there for many years,
decades in fact. Tea will not be spectacular. Always
bring your own, anyway. That's my advice.
