Wong's Restaurant

Siu Mai

Still on the restaurant note, I must have an entry on Wong's Restaurant. It's a Chinese restaurant that has become popular because of its dim sums and good prices. The trend here is to go with a group of friends and order different dishes to share from the dim sum's menu which are small  dishes of food served in  steamer baskets. My favorite ones are the Siu Mai dumplings which are steam-cooked rolls with shrimp and pork inside.The order of two dim sums and a drink can be around 5000 colones ($10). The place is located on the north side of Plaza de la Cultura on a hill that is called Cuesta de Moras. The famous Cuesta de Moras that is on the end of the street where buses to Tres Rios are. Now, it is easier if you just walk 300  meters East from the end of Central Avenue. You'll have to pass by the Mas x Menos supermaket and 50 meters or so later, you'll see the restaurant's entrance to your left. It has also the traditional menu from a Chinese restaurant, so provecho!
