"Eat in Guang Zhou, taste in Xi Guan." Xi Guan has been the core area of Guang Zhou's food culture for over three hundred years and is also the birthplace of dim sum.
Traditional morning tea dim sum can be categorized into steamed and fried varieties. Fried dim sum includes fried yam, fried carrot cakes, and crispy pastries, while steamed dim sum includes cheong fun, cha siew bao, crystal ha gow, and siu mai. Among them, steamed dim sum is known for its exquisite craftsmanship and appealing appearance.
According to legend, during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, a general was deeply moved by the bravery of his soldiers who fought tirelessly on the battlefield, so he ordered the production of delicious cakes and pastries from the people, which were sent to the frontline to comfort them, expressing his "little heartfelt intentions." Since then, the term "dim sum" has been used and passed down to this day.
The main characteristic of Wang Zai dim sum is its extensive use of ingredients, wide variety, innovative styles, and a wide range of filling options.
