Was out in Chicago a few weeks ago and we stopped by Chinatown for dim sum. One thing I have to say to you Chicagoans is that you really keep your Chinatown tidy! It was so clean and parking was actually easy to find - not like here in New York or even the Chinatown in San Francisco. We asked a few locals on the street and they chicken feet dim sum The beef balls were hit and so was the jia leung. Beef was very tender and juicy. The jia leung which is a roll of fried dough wrapped with rice noodles still had a nice crunch and the rice noodle was silky smooth and delicious. jia long rice noodles happy chef dim sum We also ordered a bowl of congee which turned out to be enormous - enough for at least 3 people or 2 very hungry diners. All in all it was a great dim sum experience and was not very expensive. We actually tried the place next door on an earlier trip for my friend’s wedding last year and I would say Happy Chef is a little better in quality and service.
