LUMDIMSUM'S TOP 5 PICKS

An Intro to LumDimSum: Sharing Small Tastings from Me to Beijing

Posted: July 22nd, 2009 | Author: LumDimSum | Filed under: A Day In My Life, Background, Food For Thought, Personal | Tags: Dim Sum | No Comments »

dimsum1How ironic that a name which used to torment me and make me squirm with discomfort is the name I have chosen as my blog name. Call it irony, but now I just think it’s fitting.

Not only does Dim Sum rhyme with my last name, which makes it that much more fun to say, dim sum cuisine originates from Guangdong Province, which is home to my father’s family. Dim Sum is not only a staple food of my culture, but it has always been a significant part of my life in terms of countless times it brings my family together.

Above this, I chose LumDimSum for the significance that dim sum is served in small portions -perfect for sharing, which LumDimSum emulates in its own way. LumDimSum is my way of sharing with you small tastings of my thoughts, pieces of my day, and most importantly, I share with you the best parts and highlighted events in this always-changing, ever-evolving social scene that is Beijing nightlife and dining.
