Editorial Review for HSF – by Janet Tzou
The Scene
There's a certain locomotive element here as all the dim sum carts go whizzing by. Small parties must share a table with others (it's not negotiable), and the freshest foods circulate before 3pm.
The Food
HSF offers all the dim sum favorites, such as pork buns, shumai dumplings and sweet egg custard pastries, as well as fried turnip cakes, shrimp balls and freshly braised vegetables. The steamed offerings are fresh and filling--try the shrimp rice noodles. The fried dishes, such as egg rolls and garlic pork dumplings, can be a bit too greasy. Dim sum is served here until 4pm, Monday through Friday, but menu items, including some unorthodox choices such as open skillet-cooked scallops, chive-infused dumpling varieties and dense, rich coconut pudding cubes, are also available. Or you can pick a live lobster from the tanks and have it cooked within minutes.

This may be the only dim sum available ( to round eyes) in NYC... yeah it is that good. Not a place for yuppies, but if you really like dim sum or want to learn about it, well than this is your spot.

Went for saturday morning Dim Sum. Food okay but nothing to write home about. Mens restroom- disgusting w. no paper towels! There are much better, cleaner places to get Dim Sum in Chinatown.
Pros: cheap
Cons: average food, unclean
