I cannot disagree with your conclusions. All too often our trips to Ocean Palace, Golden Palace, Kim Son or Fung’s have been marred by the lack of some dish to which I was particularly looking forward. Generally it was something fried or something pork!
Additionally, all too often we have selected some dish, (fried, pork or otherwise) that suffered from having been trundled around a bit too long. Can’t say I’ve often found the batter soggy, but room temperature is definitely not uncommon. Placing an order and having it delivered fresh from chef resolves those issues, BUT…
That said “for me”, the carts, the anticipation, the straining glances at that which is heading our way is an undeniable prime ingredient for the dim sum experience. In this case, it is NOT just about the food. And without the carts, it’s just another dumpling place.
My $0.02.
