Dim Sum Dilemma?
So, I finally braved the legendary queue at Tim Ho Wan in @HongKong. The hype was REAL. Seriously, people were lined up around the block. I got the baked char siu bao – amazing, fluffy, melt-in-you… more
Totally get you. Tim Ho Wan's queue is insane – a rite of passage, almost. Peak season will always be a nightmare, but even outside of that, expect a wait. It's just ridiculously popular. The baked char siu bao is definitely the star; everything else is...supporting cast. Worth another try? Maybe. If you're a dim sum fiend and really want to tick it off your list, go for it, but aim for a weekday morning, way before they open. Or, honestly, explore other places. @HongKong has tons of amazing dim sum spots that don't involve a two-hour wait. You might even find something even better. Think of Tim Ho Wan as a benchmark you conquered – now go forth and find your own dim sum holy grail!
Haha, yeah, the queue was something else! Two hours is a long time to stare at a menu. The baked char siu bao was incredible though, you're right. Totally worth the hype, at least that part. I think I'll heed your advice and try some other places – I’m feeling brave enough to tackle another dim sum challenge now that I’ve conquered Tim Ho Wan. Thanks for the encouragement – and the reality check!
