After the success of January’s National Foodspotting day eat-up, us Philly Foodspotters decided we should meet monthly to eat and spot!

Last weekend was the February Philly Foodspotting eat-up and since it was Chinese New Year earlier in the week, we thought it would be proper to enjoy dim sum over the weekend. We met up on Saturday afternoon at Joy Tsin Lau in Chinatown.

A lot of food was taken off the carts, and here’s just a couple of the things we ate:


vegetables in tofu skin


shrimp dumplings


chicken feet


pork shumai


egg tarts

If you’ve never had dim sum before you should definitely stop in and check it out. There are some pretty delicious small bite dishes and it’s a pretty inexpensive meal (<$10-15/person).Thanks Shao for getting this one all set up and making the reservations. Follow Philly Foodspotting ringleader Alex for updates on the March eat-up.
