Chinese Breakfast

chee cheong fun(steamed rolled rice noodles with grilled poke)

Most chinese like to take'dim sum' for breakfast. It is a specialty found in Chinatown all over the world. In Hong Kong, Malaysia, Australia and even in America 'dim sum' is very popular with the chinese. Dim sum comes in small dainty plates of fried spring roll, fried yam cakes, fried fish ball or steamed little bamboo basket of a variety of minced meat balls, fish balls, minced meat with prawns, steamed rice noodles with prawns or char siew(grilled pork) ,glutinous rice with chickenmeat and chinese sausage and pau (sweet meat buns).
The place that we went to for dim sum is the popular chinese restaurant in Klang Valley, The Tai Thong Restaurant. They served a wide variety of dim sum and they are very tasty. Hot good chinese tea is served along with the food as it is believed it will cleanse the body of excess oil.Take a look at some of the pictures here.
