[quote=Anonymous]I'm Chinese and the most authentic Dim Sum in the area is actually way up in Gaithersburg, a restaurant called New Fortune. However, when we don't want to hike that far, we go to Hollywood East in Wheaton. Oriental East in Silver Spring is above average, but I like Hollywood East better. One problem with Oriental East is that they open Sat & Sun at 11am and by 10:30 there is a line around the corner. If you don't get in line before 11am, you will not be eating before 12:15-12:30 at the earliest. The place will fill up and then you will be in line waiting until a table opens up. Frankly, the food is good, but not worth the inconvenience and the wait. Hollywood East is slightly better (IMO) and the wait (when there is one) is nowhere near as long. You'll also find slightly more Asians at Hollywood East than at Oriental East, if that matters to you (some believe that when there are more Asians, then the food is more authentic/better).[/quote]
