Food log: Sunday, July 25

FINALLY I went to Dim Sum in Montréal with a bunch of friends from work. I can't believe it took so long. I've been here for 18 years!! My friend Laurent chose the spot, a place called Kam Fung that he and his bride-to-be love. It was awesome. We all went into a feeding frenzy as soon as we sat down.

We picked plates after plates and it all came down to $18 a head, tip included. Delicious AND cheap!

  1. Wow... was this your first time having Dim Sum? I'm surprised too. It seems like you're a food expert and have tried just about everything ;-)

    Dim Sum is fun to try for sure. There are a lot of different types of things. Of course there are some things that I won't try like chicken feet. But, if you're adventurous you can even try them. I know quite a few Asians will eat them.

    Have a good week - Jeff =)

  2. No no no, it was my first time in Montreal. I went a bunch of times in Toronto, Vancouver and even San Francisco. :)

  3. Ah... okay... I should have figured as much. I suspected you must have had just about every type of food under the sun at least one time or another =)

    Take care ~
