Profile

Café Evergreen delivers its first-rate dim sum everywhere on the Upper East Side. Gorge yourself on fluffy pork buns, gooey, gelatinous vegetable dumplings, and specials such as beef glazed in a crispy, moderately spiced orange sauce and served with broccoli. Leave a little room for the scrumptious almond-flavored, crunchy cookies, free along with the standard fortune kind. Skip the tasteless and mushy "light specials"—prepared without oil, cornstarch, salt, sugar or soy sauce. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Dim Sum Brunch

Sat.–Sun., 11:30 a.m.–3:30 p.m.

Recommended Dishes

Pork buns, $5.25; vegetable dumplings, $5.25; beef glazed in orange sauce, $13.50
