Koi Palace is a pretty good place, they're in DC though... Cupertino has some good places...

China Village is okay. Pan Tao in Cupertino is better.

On a related note, has anyone ever walked out of dim sum without feeling grossly stuffed with grease while still being full? I have not....

Yea, but Concord is one helluva drive from San Mateo just for dim sum. I may just stop by there though when I go up to that area to get some gunsmithing done from BrokenArrow.
