We visited Wing Lei for the Dim Sum Brunch this past Sunday. Normally they are only open for dinner, but twice a year they offer dim sum brunch for Christmas and Chinese New Year. Brunch is priced at $68.88. They offer a buffet area with a sushi station, carving station, soup station, chilled shellfish, and a hot food covered tray area. Hot foods included salt & pepper chicken wings, curry beef, shrimp chow fun, beef fried rice, bok choy, black bean sea bass, duck. I loved the black bean sea bass. They also featured dim sum carts, but the carts are very minimal with only 1 cart passed around every 30-45 minutes. The cart variety was not wide enough. Most of the cart items were different varieties of dumplings. Furthermore, most of the items on the carts were lukewarm to room temperature.\n\nThe service was inconsistent, with some servers being outstanding and others would totally forget that they had said they would bring a requested item. I was surprised they had no drawn butter for the crab claws and lobster.\n\nBeing a huge dim sum fan, I was really excited to try the brunch and I wanted to love it. But it fell short of a $70 brunch (that didn't include any alcohol). Maybe I expected too much given that they're a Michelin start restaurant, but I've had better dim sum from hole in the wall places
