Where can you find the best Dim Sum in UK? According to SM, it's Royal China at Bayswater London. In fact, he was being told that it's the best Dim Sum in Europe. Since, it's the best, we had to try it. So there we were at 15 mins to noon on a Saturday. The restaurant opens at 12 noon, and there were already more than a dozen people waiting at the door. It must be really good - we don't see this very often in London.

The restaurant opened and we went in with the crowd. As soon as we got seated, I looked around and noticed that the whole restaurant was already full. And it wasn't a small restaurant. There were at least 15 tables there and one table occupied about 6-7 people, some occupying only 2.

The food was really good. But I'm not sure if it was the best in Europe. So far, it was the best in London that I've eaten. We had plenty of food and it costed £12 per person.

Dominic was an angel. He slept through the entire time and woke up just when we were about to leave. By then, it was about 2:30pm. Yes, we spent 2 1/2 hours for lunch.

We were stuffed after lunch, so we took a stroll at Hyde Park and Oxford Street.

Here's a photo we took at Royal China. The rest of the people in the photo are mostly ex-Accenture or currently with Accenture (i.e. now SM's colleagues) or ex-Standard Chartered who used to work with SM in the Siebel project. The world is really small and somehow we managed to find each other miles away from home. :-) Dominic's not in the photo cos he was sleeping in his pushchair.
