Sampan is my go to for dim sum (it's 20 minutes away). Most of the time when I go to the usual cart dim sum places, half the stuff I get ends up being cold by the time it gets to me, so I prefer ordering a la carte. The noodle soups are filling, but the ones I've tried haven't been particularly outstanding (I really like the Floating Market Soup at Bangkok Noodle). I've had good luck with the tripe dishes, particularly the casseroles, as well as the clams with black bean sauce. I'm always looking for a decent deep fried pork chop; Sampan does an excellent Crispy Spicy Pork Chop that cut into bite size pieces, fried extra crispy, and toppped with fried garlic and chilis.
