Talk:Dim sum

White rice cake?
A few times that I've gone for Dim Sum, I've been able to snag a dessert item, that is about 3/4" thick, sliced in triangular chunks about 2"x3". These are white, a bit rubbery, taste like rice and honey, are flat on the top, but have a not-quite-honeycomb lattice on the bottom. (And are delicious!!) I've asked what the name is, and I've forgotten the chinese name, but I was told the english translation is "Rice Cake" or "White Rice Cake". I came to this article to try to learn more about it (re-learn what its name is, so I can ask for it properly, or try to look for recipes....), but it's not here. :( Does anyone know what this dish is, and what it's (properly) called? And can it please get added to this article? It doesn't taste like coconut, so it's not coconut jelly. Thanks!  173.206.137.186 (talk) 23:18, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Jin deui or Jian dui?
The wonderful Sesame Ball is shown as Jin Deui here, but the link is to the article on Jian Dui! Not so much as a disambig! Is one of those the proper (transliterated) name... or maybe both? I think there are two fillings: red bean paste and lotus paste. Do the pastries have different names depending on the filling? Tzf (talk) 21:44, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Lo Mai Ban? (Sticky Jin Deui)
Another Xin Nian dish, with the center of jin deui (red bean paste usually) but the chewy dough is uncooked, sweet, and wrapped in a leaf like Lo Mai Gai. What is the correct name for this? Tzf (talk) 21:44, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Does the article include images that enhance understanding the topic?
While the article does use some of the images to identity the food as well as some of the tea commonly used, much of the food in the article mentioned does not have an image to reference to. Jennil12988 (talk) 03:10, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

Not Dim Sum
The current version of the article has some items that are not really dim sum. How can one call congee “dim sum”? NOT every dish that one can order in a Chinese restaurant when go for “yum cha” can be called dim sum. This needs to be fixed. -- Dustfreeworld (talk) 18:24, 9 July 2024 (UTC)


 * I have removed some of the most obvious. Those *are* Chinese food, but *not* dim sum. They can be added to other articles. -- Dustfreeworld  (talk) 21:48, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
