Stopping by the Srinakarin area — if you're too lazy to head into town for good dim sum, we recommend The Chinese restaurant at Dusit Princess Srinakarin. It nails the atmosphere, flavor, and price all at once. Right now they have a Peking duck set with sides at 3,990 baht net for 4 people. The Peking duck skin is evenly crispy, and the duck sauce is aromatic with a well-balanced sweet-savory flavor.

The sizzling-hot-plate duck meat stir-fried with black pepper is very fragrant, the Hong Kong-style kale is done just right, and the yangzhou fried rice wrapped in lotus leaf comes generous and packed with ingredients. The lucky soup with shrimp dumplings shaped like cute koi fish, and the 4-basket dim sum set includes a lava durian bao. They also have All You Can Eat Dim Sum, a dim sum buffet at 888 baht net, for both lunch and dinner.
