Doing Dim Sum

I've just returned from a week in Vancouver, home to one of North America's largest Chinatowns. It's great to see that some Chinese restaurants still use the cart system to serve dim sum! It was fun sampling from all the different carts, never knowing what is coming next. We wound up with delicious crispy pork, deep-fried squid, and an assortment of dumplings. Learn more about the history of dim sum, and try several recipes, including Chicken’s Feet and Egg Custard Tarts.
