Alix and Brendan Quinn Treated Us to Dim Sum Lunch Yesterday

It has been a while since I had Dimsum in foggy but beautiful city of San Francisco. However, yesterday noon time, Grand Daughter Alix Katague Quinn and newly wedded husband Brendan Quinn treated us to one of the best rated ( Michelin Star) Dim Sum Restaurant in San Francisco. It was the HK Lounge Bistro located at 1136 Folsom St., San Francisco, 94103, USA. https://hkloungebistro.com/

Here's what Michelin says about the restaurant:

"When its previous incarnation was destroyed by fire, no one was injured, but nonetheless many mourned the loss of one of the city's most cherished Cantonese establishments. With its return, dim sum devotees can rejoice once again, and indeed you're likely to find this modest yet tidily appointed SoMa spot full of regulars during lunch hours. Families and business types alike find pleasure in artfully pleated Shanghai dumplings filled with rich broth and fresh crab meat, or baked pork buns with a crackling topping; sweet bites like fried sesame balls, egg tarts and mango pudding are also much admired. At dinner, the menu is fleshed out with more substantial, large-format dishes, including crisp-skinned roast duck and fragrant steamed seabass".

Since a Picture is worth more than a thousand words, here are some Photos of our Dim Sum Gastronomic Adventure yesterday. Thank You Alix and Brendan. In our party are: Daughter Dinah, Grand Daughter Alix and Husband Brendan, Grandson Philip Katague and Grand Daughter Marina with Boy friend Wyatt Stoker (see photo above).

What I really enjoyed is the Pork Barbecue Bun. The dough of the Bun was so moist and tender and from what I read it is a special recipe of the restaurant cook and owner.  There was also a sticky rice dish wrapped in banana leaves that I have not tasted for quite sometime.
