    Loved your review of Yum Cha. We visited it on Thursday morning on our way to Red Rocks. The dim sum was pretty good, almost on par with another of your recommendations on Orchid Garden. Both services were wonderful. I liked that you can order from the menu, which meant it was served hot. I was not brave enough to try the chili paste. I also value my life. Strange we were served with paper plates when we were there. I still recommend it

    I usually stay at the Orleans and had no idea Yum Cha was nearby!! I've been going to Ping Pang Pong at the Gold Coast for my dim sum fix in LV. By coincidence, you ordered six of my favorite dim sum items, so this video was extremely helpful. I especially enjoy good turnip cake, and from your reaction, this turnip cake is better than good!! And there's nothing like good chili oil to add another layer of flavor to turnip cake... 😂 Yum Cha will be a "must-do" on my next trip to Las Vegas. Liked and subbed!!! Thanks, Danny!!!!

    Love your videos. I like when you order the same items as you can judge the consistency. I have found, over time, restaurants are serving bland food to satisfy sensitive pallets. Unfortunately, the food needs the condiments to help it taste better. I try to order my food with a little spice. I imagine the cooks prefer to cook this way.

    @@dannythemedic You said "Thank you" in Chinese to the waiter who was providing a service. The proper "Thank you" should be the "please" at the beginning of the request. In Cantonese, there are two types of "Thank You" vs. one overall "Thank you" in English or Mandarin. I grew up in Hong Kong and my dad was a Chinese Language and History Professor. But I am sure you know this already since you enunciate most of the Cantonese "words" pretty well. Love your reviews. They are pretty funny, especially at PF Chang.

    I've yet to try this place. Have watched vids of others but, to date, yours is the most entertaining....LOL I apologize DtM, it's because of the expression on your face when you discover how hot the dim sum is when you first put it in your mouth. Again, apologies for my enjoyment at your expense / pain LOL Did you not notice the steam rising from the dishes when delivered ? ....even after how long you took to eat the noodle rolls PLUS asking / waiting for the water ?! I could see the steam rising in the video !! I'm impressed how hot the dishes are when they arrives though. Wasn't that one of the reasons you didn't enjoy your first visit to KJ"s DimSum @ the RIO ?
