YUMMY HOUSE CHINA BISTRO INC – Restaurant

Tampa's Cantonese standard-bearer, where dim sum runs at lunch and the dining room fills fast. The house signature is the salt-and-pepper treatment — green onion, cilantro, roasted garlic and minced chilli tossed through crisp calamari, eggplant, shrimp or scallops. Beyond it: Hong Kong roast duck and Peking duck, seafood tofu clay pots, sizzling pork chops in black pepper sauce, Hong Kong wonton soup. At midday it is har gow, shu mai, egg tarts, chive dumplings and chicken feet in black bean. Diners come because the kitchen takes Cantonese technique seriously. Book ahead for weekends.
