I took the day off and went for Chinese New Year dim sum with my parents at Purple Orchid:
Egg custard tarts (daan tat)
Steamed pork and shrimp dumplings (siu mai)
Fried glutinous rice dumplings (ham sui gok)
Steamed shrimp dumplings (har gow)
Steamed BBQ pork buns (char siu bao)
Steamed bean curd rolls
Lion dance!
The dim sum was good — classic options, standard portions, no frills but tasty (though the char siu bao were a little too soft; the bottom was almost mushy), and decently priced (about $60 in total after tax and tip for six dishes plus tea service for three people). A solid choice for dim sum in the Richmond Hill area. Bonus: we got there just in time for the lion dance show. A great start to the new year!
