Review of La Paleta
4

La Paleta is my new lunch go-to spot. Very good din sum and their "8 for 88" (8 dishes you select from a list of about 50) is a great deal for lunch -- enough for 2 people for sure.

I especially love their "changfen" that is wrapped around what appears to be a youtiao -- nice one, have not seen this one before.

They also have great desserts as well -- though I was irritated during my last trip with they substituted sweet black rice porridge (hei mi lu) for my favorite tapioca (xi mi lu) -- while the chinese name for them implies they are similar, they are actually quite different (for one, tapioca has nothing to do with rice).
