No. 22The one to order
Har gow, chicken feet in black bean and the egg tarts, with chrysanthemum tea
A Guangzhou teahouse since 1880 in the old Xiguan quarter: dim sum as the Cantonese morning ritual.

1 hr 15 min · About 20 dumplings, 4 people. The dim sum test: a translucent, chewy wheat-starch wrapper around a snappy whole-shrimp filling. Hot water is the trick that makes the dough work.
