Today we are bringing our Southern Chef friends Chef Charles and Chef Quie to experience Dim sum for the first time. Chef Quie claims that he has never had a really good Chinese spot before in New York and today we are going to Flushing Queens to have them try the entire menu.

As someone married to a BW, her family LOVES the experiences at each place. I still have yet to take them out for dim sum. Their favorite is definitely hot pots and ramen. It's funny how a lot of cultures do cross, especially the henny thing. Viet/Chinese people absolutely LOVE it for family gatherings.

Nowadays, there are less and less waiters would push the trolley around and ask you what dim sum would you like in Hong Kong Yum Cha restaurant. We now just order by ticking what we want in a dim sum menu paper. Really missing the most traditional vibe 😢

[@cami_ille]

Which is a shame, the carts are the best part. I love being able to see the options roll around. If I can go to a cart place, I'll usually pick that over a menu-only one.

[@UmiNoOto]

Its so fun experiencing the carts and seeing your favorite dish come around 😂

[@jamesj5612]

Many asian americans prefer the checklist because 1. We order exactly what we want. 2. Many of us don't speak canto (not saying you need to, but it's easier). 3. Sometimes the carts are annoying and we want to eat in peace. Hong Kongers are used to the Chaos of Yumcha on a weekend morning, many of us are not.

[@meows..]

im so sad for you 😥!! most of the dimsum places here where im from still do it the traditional way, hot and steaming good delicacies!

[@weiwu2113]

@@meows..I’m too sad =( love the old tradition

[@yakitatefreak]

If you saw the egg tart segment and Chef Charles commenting on the sugar like Creme Brule, there is a similar dish in Macau known as the Portuguese Tart (In Cantonese circles) and Pasteis de Nata or Pasteis de Belem (In Lusophone/Portuguese-speaking areas) which translates to Custard Tart (Nata is a Portuguese custard) or Pastries of Bethlehem with bakeries in Portugal consuming them most commonly on Sundays after attending church. Traditionally, they are topped with cinnamon sugar in Portugal with a packet that you get in a bakery and flavored more in line within a manner more in line with western desserts. In Macau, where I first encountered the tart, these are usually served in either bakeries (Such as Lord Stow's Bakery in Macau) or Macanese Dim Sum spots. In my region, where I have a Portuguese bakery that serves this, I was able to find the place and enjoy these delicate cups of joy with some topped with some fruit (Plain, Blueberry, Passionfruit, and Strawberry). I think Chef Charles needs to visit a Macanese bakery for this "Brule-like" experience.

[@jts1702a]

On the OTHER hand, by finding familiarity in the non-brulee version, one would know you're of Hong Kong/English heritage!

[@marshy_5406]

Both the Macau and the Hong Kong egg tarts were inspired by European pastry and the Portuguese dish so it’s more of a multicultural cuisine that was invented because of the trade and clash of culture that happened there

[@chrisb2535]

I'm not sure why he brought up Creme Brulee. I mean, yeah, the filling is the same. But in Southern US cuisine there's Egg Custard Pie which is closer to (or exactly) the egg tart. It's a flaky crust filled with egg custard.

[@jts1702a]

Soul food have and use many similar ingredients, but try getting someone who cooks West African try out the intestine dishes available in Dim Sum -- that's the thing that'll blow their minds. West Africans (from Senegalese all the way to Kongolese and everything in between) are familiar with cow and lamb and its innards, as with the big savory seasonings with spice and stockfish, but the Cantonese version's thorough steaming and mushy-soft texture a RARE preference to their West African counterparts, who prefer it with some chew and usually boiled. In contrast, a Cantonese palate will probably consider the tripe served in West African joints to be under-done and unacceptably chewy, leaving strands in the teeth. See if you can find someone who cooks Ghanaese or Nigerian food to ruminate (no pun intended!) on this.

[@chrisb2535]

Most American Chinese restaurants already have a variety of traditional items on their menus. Although, they may not be made exactly the same. e.g. Ma Po Tofu, Kung Pao Chicken, Mu Shu, Fried Rice, Lo Mein, Chow Mein, Hot Sour Soup, etc.

I love chicken feet - in addition to the dim sum, I used to make a soup that used chicken feet to form the broth that was the foundation for the soup [I should say, this was a soup I created, not a recipe I found somewhere] - oh, and no, I'm not Chinese - I'm of Finnish descent and my wife was of Ukrainian descent though both of us were born in Canada. I love cooking, though these days I don't do as much as I used to years ago, but I cook using ideas from many cultures, and I'm not afraid to use most ingredients.
