Dim sum, a traditional Chinese cuisine, has a rich history dating back to the ancient Silk Road. Originating in the teahouses of Canton, it evolved into a popular dining experience. Dim sum, meaning "touch the heart," consists of small, savory or sweet dishes served in bamboo steamers or on small plates. Chefs meticulously prepare items like dumplings, buns, and rolls, showcasing their culinary skills. Today, dim sum is enjoyed worldwide, with notable regions including Hong Kong, Guangzhou, and Singapore. The best dim sum experience can be found in Hong Kong, where renowned restaurants like Tim Ho Wan and Lin Heung Tea House serve delectable classics like har gow and char siu bao.
