Our little YVR dining crew and outfit took to Kirin for some dim sum to celebrate the engagement of our dear friends Dennis and May dubbed the "Pangagement" or "Wedding Pangs".

It was pretty crowded and lively.

The food and quality seemed fine and on par with usual Chinese food flavour. I did like the congee quite a bit.

Jeremy and Cheryl seemed to enjoy the affair among our bunch.

I say again, the restaurant gives off a more professional, upscale, classy vibe like when I ate there for dinner.

My favourite dish of the meal was probably the deep fried squid. I found it crisp and delicious.

The service just seemed kind of off. They mixed up a couple of our dishes and, while not being particularly rude or bad, they just seemed inattentive and aloof.

The baked tapioca dessert was actually quite scrumptious and filling. Everything else and the staple dim sum fare was more or less standard.

I thought it was a so-so dining experience. Nothing really soured me on the meal, but little stood out at the same time.
