Title
Dim Sum
Description
"Dim sum is a style of Cantonese food that has grown increasingly popular in the Western world in recent years. It is inextricably linked with yum cha, or the act of drinking tea – so much so that even now the two phrases are used interchangeably. Dim sum means 'touch the heart' in Chinese. In southern China, and specifically Hong Kong, many restaurants start serving dim sum as early as five in the morning. Dim sum has evolved from a relaxing roadside respite to a meal that you can enjoy at any time of the day or night."

"Nibble, don’t gobble
Go easy on the soy sauce
The spoon can be used for more than broth
Keep your chopsticks to yourself
Learn the secret codes
Don’t over order. You can keep going back for more."
