Yum Cha is an integral part of Cantonese’s culinay culture which should be proud of. In Cantonese, yum cha means “drink tea”, and is a dining experience which involves drinking Chinese tea and eating dim sum dishes. Dim sum is a variety of small dishes; they can be steamed or fried, savoury or sweet and maybe tradition or fusion. They are usually tiny and will be served as three to four pieces in one dish. Because of the small portions people can try a wide variety of food.
Although you can yum cha at the noon time (as brunch or afternoon tea), but I like to yum cha in the morning. Just imaging early in the morning, all family members gather at the restaurant enjoying dim sum dishes and tea while chit chat with each other. Nothing is more happiness than this, isn’t?
We decided to yum cha at New Hong Kong Restaurant, which located near to Lido Beach and offer the traditional dim sum in a-la-carte.
