Vegetarians can enjoy dimsum too! Fine Garden is the only all vegetarian dim sum restaurant in the SGV. The shui mai (pork dumpling) is made with soy crab and tastes just like the real thing. The best dishes are the BBQ "pork" buns, lotus leaf with sticky rice, har gow (shrimp dumplings), radish cake, pumpkin and taro hot pot, almond tea pastry dessert, and vegan Tiramisu cake. Best part of Fine Garden? They serve dim sum all day long!
