 | | Dim sum consists of many small dishes that could be considered appetizers, such as dumplings, buns, fried or steamed meats and seafood, vegetarian dishes, cakes and desserts, but when eaten in quantity, can make a satisfying yet not overly filling meal. | | | Dim sum is the typical Hong Kong breakfast/lunch fare, much like bacon, eggs and toast are in the west, except with a much more diverse and extensive selection of dishes that can satiate one's appetite. | | | Dim sum dishes come in various sizes (small, medium, large and specialty dishes) and are priced accordingly. |

| | Dim sum restaurants usually serve a wide range of dishes, and ingredients include beef, chicken, shrimp, pork and vegetables. | | | Generally considered a breakfast, brunch or lunch meal, the dim sum experience is as much about how the food is served as about the food itself. | | | Because of this assortment, and because dim sum restaurants tend to be loud and boisterous scenes, it's an ideal meal for a large group of friends or family. |

| | Wandering Spoon - Dim Sum |
| | Many dim sum dishes are subtle in their seasonings, so do use a light hand with the sauces and dips. | | | Despite an emphasis on the abundance and variety of food, tea is still the most important facet of dim sum. | | | The ideal time to arrive for dim sum is between 11:00 and 11:30 AM, early enough to miss the discouraging lines but late enough to catch the better dishes that the chefs save for peak crowds. |

| | "Dim sum" translates roughly as "heart's delight." These little morsels may take form as dumplings filled with meat, light fresh greens, aromatic fish cakes, miniature pastries, a wide variety of savory or sweet, steamed or fried, hot or cold bite-sized wonders. | | | Dim sum grew out of teahouse culture, offering a late morning snack to nibble with friends over a pot of fine tea and spirited conversation. | | | A welcome exception, the tasty siu mai (steamed pork dumpling) came steaming to our table, and had a fresh balance of green onion blended with the chewy pork filling. |

| | Dim sum is also problematic if you're a vegetarian; although there are sometimes vegetarian items, the kitchen will probably not be very zealous about keeping them isolated from the ubiquitous pork products. | | | Dim sum started as things to nibble on while drinking tea; the phrase "yum cha" (to drink tea) is shorthand for going to eat dim sum in Canton, Hong Kong, et cetera. | | | Dim sum calls for special information, because usually dim sum doesn't have a menu at all. |

Of course, a dim sum meal wouldn't be right without piquant dipping sauces, which we've also provided. |
