Ming’s Bistro – FRESH Dim Sum


Looking for some FRESH dim sum in Orlando? Word of mouth and locals will point to Ming’s Bistro. Viet Town is known for all of its Asian restaurants and treats; and Ming’s Bistro is the people’s champ for dim sum.

Dim Sum

Today my pledge brother, Danny Phu, graduated UCF! So his family took us all out for lunch. His dad ordered a feast: four orders of Siu Mai (pork and shrimp dumplings), shrimp dumplings, black bean pork, shrimp rice paste, tripe (two different kinds), steamed pork buns, taro, and so much more I can’t even remember.

For noobs, try the soy sauce mixed with chili sauce (you’ll find the sauces in the middle of your table). I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like the shrimp dumplings, so if you’re not familiar with dim sum, get that.

My Top 3 Dim Sum:

1) Shrimp Rice Paste
2) Shrimp Dumplings
3) Siu Mai 

Fair warning for first-timers and other noobs: don’t expect great service. The people there can sometimes be unfriendly and hard to get a hold of. But if you’re going to eat delicious dim sum,  you’re at the right place.

Minus the service: Ming’s Bistro Dim Sum = #freshaspho
