We are doing Dim Sum at Good Fortune in Wheaton on Christmas day. We really enjoy it there.

I read the not so favorable reviews in the restaurant guide but the last one was quite a few years ago. I think they must have improved a lot in recent years.

Their chive dumplings are excellent. I also recommend their steamed chicken buns....they have the perfect amount of fresh ginger in them. The fried fungor (spelling) is amazing as well (they look like deep fried empanadas).

Is the G3 Lab open? The G3 site now says "The restaurant also features ... fine dining in the famous Laboratorio open on specific evenings highlighting a decadent tasting dinner menu consisting of multiple courses prepared by Chef Donna."

I was told it would be late January. However when I called about it I received a gracious invitation to come in for a special 10 course tasting menu, seated at a table with a view of the action. Oh, Laboritorio how I've missed you! We are going next week and I am thrilled!

On another note, in years past Chef Donna offered a take home meal for the major holidays. We did that one year for New Year's Eve and it was amazing. Now that we have small children I would LOVE for them to offer this again one day. I'm crossing my fingers.

Hi all! I'm Laura.....foodie and mom of two foodies in training.

It's nice to "meet" everyone.
