Dim Sum Etiquette 101

Wow is your stupidity going viral

Imagine tapping your fingers on the table like that in a non Chinese restaurant. Them fingers are getting snapped 😅

Subscribed Because our culture is no different plus food who doesn't love food
😋

You mention the double chopsticks like it's a thing when it's not, and you don't mention the utensil washing procedure....

Hou don't speak good chinese...are you even an ethnic chinese?

What is the name of this restaurant? Could you attach the full video.

fun fact, the tapping your fingers action was created when a emporer needed to go under cover but the servant was like, "oh no im gonna die cause i cant bow to him, thats gonna blow his cover, but if i dont hes still gonna kill me, im fucked' so he tapped his hand, also you're supposed to just keep your hand on the table and just kinda lift and drop fingers and not wack your entire hand and fingers on the table again and again.

Bro your face is so annoying..really!!stop with those nostrils shots..😤

Number 7 dony record

Ur finger tapping is incorrect! The correct way is with two fingers bent (like imitating a "kneeling" posture).

Love the double chopsticks 😍

The double chopsticks is definitely a thing in Hong Kong but a rarity across most Chinatown restaurants in the US. In HK, higher end dim sum establishments almost always provide two sets of chopsticks for each person, often in two different colors so you don’t mix up the eating chopsticks vs the serving chopsticks. Maybe why many in the comments are unfamiliar with it.

Don't know bro can speak Cantonese that good

Tapping the table means the complete opposite where in from 😅

Here's a tip: always ask for the take-out chopsticks. They're smaller, wooden and more manageable than the larger laquered or plastic ones that typically are offered.

Thank for sharing tips and customs to follow. I very much appreciate that. I enjoy learning about different cultures and customs. The food looks so fantastic! ❤😊

Best eat with hands or fork 🍴 dimsums. Use butter garlic sauce its one of the best for dimsums.

This guy, with a face full of food, thinks it's ok to show it. Gross

Bruh…. It’s only 1 chopsticks 🥢, stop trying to be fancy. If you go to any authentic Chinese dim sum palace and dare to ask for 2 chopsticks each, they’ll throw you out. If you’re cringe, just put spoons 🥄 on every dim sum 🥟 dish like a normal person.

So u speak Cantonese and your wife speak Mandarin?😮

lam Chinese too

Dim Sum big dumplings

I’m absolutely delighted that you just taught me this sir!! Us English, don’t always have the best etiquette 😂

Chinese food is my favourite!!

Looks delicious

I haven't personally had chrysanthemum tea beyond the canned Yeo's version so I have no idea how it properly tastes, but Pu'er tea has a strong, woody flavour. It's like dried bark... without being as unpleasant as it sounds. If I had to guess, chrysanthemum tastes smooth and flowery.

I'm glad my family doesn't care about dim sum adequate, otherwise I wouldve been disowned

The tap is no longer a thing, and only shows how ancient you are. When it was a thing, it was tea shared amongst elders, even before dum sum dishes were introduced. Stop it.

Hot sauces on Cantonese dishes? Oi vay

The only part of dim dum ii don't like is at the end when it turns into lump sum.

Nope sorry, if elders are insecure enough that they insist on an institutionalized power dynamic where they are on top, they aren't deserving of respect.

No... the sauce one is asian american I think, in traditional places you get the sauce if it is meant to be there. It is considered a huge insult if you ask for sauce, and har gaw in guangdong is NEVER with sauce.

Getting cancelled just got me weak

The silver and white chopsticks. I own a pair and a Bought them
for $2.

I’m only 11. I don’t eat those and I don’t follow rules. Haha

I’ve been going to dim sum since I was a kid and I still go occasionally with my 91 year old dad and 88 year old mom. But apparently I am no pro.

screw any and all rules made by pretentious shmucks withe a full belly- just eat and enjoy!

Ina be honest i have never had to do this at my place they really do not care less

Sorry I'm Chinese and I don't do the finger tapping the table after pouring tea thing and neither do my friends that just looks weird i just say thanks in Cantonese that's all just my thoughts.

No Ooloong?

Bro's laugh sounded like he achieved immortality

Bro, where is the best in Vancouver?!? I guess with a budget in mind?!

What about washing your dishes in the tea?

VANCOUVER ❤❤❤❤

Dim sum used to be dirt cheap in the late 90s and early 2000s in Los Angeles. Even before 2020 it was still affordable. You could feed a family of 5 for under $50. Now $50 only feeds two and I'll still be hungry.

im a pro at eating anything

I would go to an Italian restaurant

In thailand we eat most of the din sum dishes with rice. How come u dont do that

That's stupid, I'm just eating, if that's disrespectful don't own a restaurant

i wanna look like an american eating dim sum

Bro got the super villan laugh 😈
