My latest visit for Dim Sum this time around was downtown Vancouver at 1886 Restaurant, located on the 3^rd floor in the Parq Vancouver resort. Any Dim Sum experience should include multiple dishes and this one was no exception as I had a chance to try a lot of different dishes from the extensive selection on offer. I enjoyed a pot a of their Milk Oolong Tea to go along with the food offerings.
