Thanks in advance. There is a restaurant called The Great Wall on 35th Ave that serves dim sum, and has a pretty good reputation, although I have not personally tried it. What I CAN reccomend is a place in Tempe, (right next to phoenix) called Pearls. It is on Rural Road, nearest cross street is Southern. They serve fab garlic chicken. Also...ask for the chinese menu. (The pink one) The number 2 dinner off of the chinese menu consists of lobster, duck and steamed fish, all FABULOUS! I just discovered this chinese menu on my last trip to Phoenix. They gave it to us by mistake. And if you do go there, be sure to tell Pearl that Linda in California says hi. Bon apetit! Oh...if you are into thai food, (seeing as we're talking asian cuisine) try The Siamese Cat on Price Road. (Same section of the city as Pearl's) They have reasonable prices and their Tom Kow Gai soup is to die for. Enjoy!
