This is the best Chinese restaurant in Hamburg in terms of dim sum. I have tried dim sum at the major places that offer dim sum in Hamburg, but they weren't as good. Here is why Xiao Xiang's (Restaurant China Garten) dim sum is so good:
1. their dim sum is self-made
2. the dough (虾饺/韭菜餃 etc.) is translucent and elastic
3. the prawns are really crunchy
Moreover Xiao Xiang is the only Chinese restaurant that offers so many different kinds of Baozi.
Some people say that ever since Xiao Xiang moved from their old location in Uhlenhorst to their new location in Hoheluft the quality of their dim sum has declined, but I cannot agree at all. In my opinion they have been consistent over many years.
The only thing that can be quite annoying at times is that their new location is a winter garden where there is real ivy at the ceiling, and every now and then an old leaf falls down.
Whenever I went there, the waiters were always friendly and polite.
