Kon Chau Chinese Restaurant

Located in the same West Miami-Dade shopping plaza as long-standing Asian grocery Lucky Oriental Mart, Kon Chau has been disproving the slander that you can't get decent dim sum in Miami since 2011. Rolling carts steam forth from the kitchen stocked with all the usual small-plate suspects — lotus leaf-wrapped sweet sticky rice, sauce-slick chicken feet, Shanghai-style soup dumplings, fluffy steamed pork buns, tender pork siu mai, etc. The cognoscenti know to order lesser-known offerings like salted pork porridge with century egg, duck-stuffed dumplings, and tripe noodle soup.
