In February 2024, I visited Hang Ah Tea Room with a good friend for the first time. Located on Pagoda and Sacramento in Chinatown, Hang Ah is known as America's first dim sum restaurant and is over a hundred years old.
We tried a few dishes while there: the Scallion Pancakes, Hang Ah BBQ Pork Buns, Pork Meat Ball, Fried Stuffed Eggplant, XO Sauce Pan Fried Turnip Cake, and Cutie Animal Buns. Although I don't remember the specifics, I know we enjoyed our meal thoroughly.
Next time, I'll definitely try a few of these dishes again as well as order something new, like the Shrimp Dumplings or Sesame Chicken.
