Where to Eat Dim Sum in Hong Kong
The Chinese tradition of dim sum has transformed from a light snack served with afternoon tea to a full-fledged feast available all day at certain restaurants. Popular dim sum dishes include dumplings and potstickers, char siu bau (Cantonese barbecue pork buns), and cheung fan (rice noodle rolls), as well as mango pudding and custard tarts for dessert. These delicacies can be ordered off a menu or selected from delivery carts that are wheeled around the dining room.For the best dim sum in the city, try one of these Best Dim Sum Restaurants in Hong Kong, presented in alphabetical order.
