Jonathan Gold is the Pulitzer Prize-winning food writer for the Los Angeles Times. This week he ventures off to the San Gabriel Valley where there’s a new dim sum place that serves everything from the standard stuffed meat dumplings to desserts made of frogs’ fallopian tubes.
Jonathan recommends the surf clam and crab egg shrimp dumpling; congee; roasted suckling pigeon; chicken feet with brown sauce; crispy cruller rice noodle roll; salty pancake with assorted meat.
