Lao Sze Chuan is a gem nestled on Michigan Ave! 🌟 I stopped by for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the bustling menu options. The dim sum selection was fantastic - especially the fresh shrimp dumplings and sesame balls.

A highlight was the cute kitty robot that delivered my food, adding a quirky touch to the experience! The atmosphere was cozy, perfect for a solo dining adventure or a casual meal with friends.

Sure, service was a tad slow due to staffing, but the delicious flavors made it worth it. Can't wait to return for more! 🍜✨
