Traveling the World

If you’ve ever been to China, then you know that the Chinese food you are served in your home country is very different from the national and local cuisines within China. Dim Sum is a classic example of this. Cantonese cuisine is chock full of dumpling-style dishes with many different types of things inside. Some have vegetables, some have meats, while others lobster, crab, etc. It’s usually spicy and very filling, but the cost and tastiness outweigh the bloated feeling you come away with.

Although this style of cooking was developed and is common in the Canton area of southern China, it has spread to other regions of the country. At the Dim Sum restaurant here in Wuhan, waitresses wheel food carts around and stop at the tables. You select the food you want to eat, but this slow style of eating can be dangerous, as the food comes in small portions. You might be quick to order more than you can handle!
