Are you a foodie? Have you tried traditional Cantonese dim sum–the small plate experience, the chopsticks, the steam-heated carts, the stacked steamer baskets, the lively conversations? The Tea! Perhaps you've never had the opportunity to learn the immense history involved with dim sum from a Cantonese-American guide (dim sum = "to touch the heart!"). This is your chance to enjoy a truly unique dining experience. We'll brunch on Cantonese-style dim sum, served fresh from traditional push-carts & steamer baskets. You'll learn about dim sum's Silk Road roots, flavorful teas, and traditional Southern Chinese etiquette. You'll pick and choose a variety of classic dim sum specialties like barbecue pork buns, rice crepes, and egg tarts–and become touched by the heart! After the meal, enjoy a walking tour (sunscreen recommended) through the Asian Cultural District of San Diego and end at a popular Asian supermarket for some quick shopping. Are you ready for the Wild East of dim sum?
