Dim sum's origins can be traced back to the Silk Road, where travelers needed a place to rest and refresh. Teahouses emerged, initially providing simple snacks and tea. Over time, these snacks evolved into a wider variety of small, savory and sweet dishes, eventually becoming the dim sum we know today. The Cantonese style of dim sum is the most widely known and has significantly shaped its global popularity.

Cart Service
Traditionally, dim sum is served from carts that are pushed around the restaurant. Diners choose dishes directly from the carts as they pass by, offering a visual and interactive dining experience, although ordering from a menu is becoming more common.

Dim sum offers a diverse range of flavors, textures, and cooking methods, creating a complex and satisfying culinary experience. The flavors vary greatly depending on the ingredients and preparation techniques used for each individual dim sum item.
Typical flavors include savory, sweet, salty, and umami. Savory flavors often come from fillings of pork, shrimp, chicken, or beef, seasoned with soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil. Sweet flavors are found in dessert dim sum like custard buns or sesame balls. Salty flavors are frequently present in dishes with preserved meats or salted duck eggs. Umami is contributed by ingredients like mushrooms, dried scallops, and high-quality soy sauce. Textures range from the soft and pillowy steamed buns to the crispy and crunchy fried dumplings, and the chewy rice noodle rolls.

Pace Yourself
Dim sum is meant to be enjoyed leisurely. Start with a few dishes and order more as you go, rather than ordering everything at once. This prevents the food from getting cold and allows you to savor each dish.
Try a Variety
Dim sum offers a vast selection of dishes. Don't be afraid to try new things and explore different flavors and textures. Ask the server for recommendations if you're unsure.
Tea Pairing
The type of tea you choose can significantly enhance the dim sum experience. Popular choices include jasmine, oolong, and pu-erh tea, each offering distinct flavor profiles that complement the food.
Order Popular Dishes First
Some dim sum restaurants run out of popular dishes like har gow (shrimp dumplings) or siu mai (pork dumplings) later in the service. Order these early to avoid disappointment.
