What Is Dim Sum?

Dim Sum is a collection of small bite-sized dishes that are served with tea and traditionally enjoyed as a brunch or lunch time snack. The type of food served as part of Dim Sum is quite diverse and can include steamed buns (such as Char Siu Bao), dumplings, fried pastries (such as prawn toast and kataifi dragon rolls) and other snacks.

Dim Sum is presented beautifully in bamboo steamers and it’s the perfect option if you’re looking to share with others or want to try out different dishes. Traditionally in dim sum restaurants, a server would usually push around carts filled with different dishes to choose from, allowing diners to select what dishes take their fancy. However in most restaurants these days, you’d expect to choose from a menu and have your dishes brought out to your table.

Traditionally served with tea, the etiquette would be for the person closest to the teapot to pour tea for all the guests at the table before pouring his or her cup. Diners would then signal to waiters that they need a tea refill by taking the lid off the teapot and either resting it on top of or by the side of the tea pot.

Eating dim sum is a very fun and unique experience. With a wide variety of dishes to choose from, each with interesting textures and beautiful flavours that delight your tastebuds, we’re sure it’ll be a pleasant experience that’ll leave you wanting more.

What’s On Our New Dim Sum Menu?

There’s too much on our new dim sum menu to delve into each and every dish (as you can see in the image above), but we’ll share with you a selection of popular and traditional dim sum dishes that are either a great starting point or favourites that you’ll likely be looking to enjoy once again.

Blue Pavilion Char Siu Bao

One of the most popular dim sum dishes, these marshmallow-like steamed dough buns are super soft and filled with sweet and savoury char siu pork that just melts in your mouth. Steamed until the dough is soft and fluffy and the filling is cooked through, char siu bao is a real taste and texture sensation like no other.

Iberico Siu Mai

Siu Mai is a traditional chinese dumpling dish which features steamed dumplings that are enclosed in a twisty wanton wrapper with the filling just popping out of the top. Our Iberico Siu Mai contains Iberico pork, which originates from Spain and is known for its nutty, evocative flavour, which comes from the pig’s diet of acorns and other plant based items which are naturally found within its forest habitat.

Iberico Xiao Long Bao

Translated as ‘soup dumplings’, Xiao Long Bao originated in Shanghai and consists of thin, pleated dough wrappers with tasty fillings inside. Traditionally Xiao Long Bao would include minced pork and a broth that could be combined with roe and crab meat, hence the name soup dumplings. Our Iberico Xiao Long Bao contains our tasty Iberico pork which is sure to have you coming back for more.

Kataifi Dragon Rolls

Our Kataifi Dragon Rolls are a unique take on traditional Chinese rolls. Filled with succulent prawns and wrapped in delicate kataifi pastry, they offer a delightful contrast of textures — crispy and flaky on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. Each bite delivers a satisfying crunch followed by a melt-in-the-mouth finish.

Hong Kong Egg Tarts

Known as ‘Dan Tat’ in Cantonese, Hong Kong Egg Tarts are small, flaky pastry desserts that are filled with a smooth, creamy and sweet egg custard. They actually took inspiration from British custard tarts, but have their own Cantonese spin on things.

There’s something for everyone to enjoy on our new Dim Sum menu, from steamed melt in your mouth dumplings to crispy fried Kataifi Dragon Rolls and sweet and delicious Hong Kong Egg Tarts. But even if you’re on the lookout for other delicious Chinese dishes or you change your mind when you arrive, we have something for everyone to enjoy across our entire menu here at Blue Pavilion.

Be sure to book your experience with us here today and keep an eye out on our social media to take advantage of our 15% discount offer too! We can’t wait to see you soon.
