The Take
T.C. Choy's Asian Bistro no longer exists to order from. The former classy Hyde Park fixture with its 70-plus dim sum lineup sits empty while the building gets rehabbed.
Anyone chasing nostalgia or status through its sushi and stir-fries should look elsewhere.
The Verdict
The identity play here was Hyde Park residents using weekend dim sum to broadcast taste and local loyalty. Seed oil warnings on the wok and fryer items made the steamed route the only defensible order when it was open.
Skip it entirely and find an operating spot instead.
