"Last month New York received America’s first branch of Tim Ho Wan, a Hong Kong based Dim Sum specialist known to foodies as the “cheapest Michelin starred restaurant in the world.” As you can imagine with anywhere that includes the words “Michelin Starred” and “Cheap” the waits immediately became ridiculous. How bad is it? THW opens at 10 for lunch and 5 for dinner. Our designated line waiter (thanks NYCFoodFomo! arrived in line at 9:15am, had his name taken at 10:15 only to have the three of us sit at one of the last lunch seatings at 1:15 PM. So currently think of dining at Tim Ho Wan as a half day commitment."

"The hargow was so good but they're tiny!! HK milk tea had the fragrance but it was so diluted... and the congee was super salty and extra peppery. I am not a picky eater at all, and I hardly write reviews- so this means a lot! This was also my second try at Tim Ho Wan, not impressed in person or delivery."
