The Chinese call the little delicacies served at tea lunch dim sum, which translates as "touching your heart." And that indeed is what these small morsels do. The advantage of sampling them at a teahouse is the great variety available. It may take you several visits to determine your favorites. There are steamed shrimp and pork dumplings, deep-fried egg rolls and taro-root dumplings, green peppers with shrimp filling, and on and on.

dim sum is a type of food service, not a type of food. Think of it as a buffet, where the table comes to you. Any number of different dishes are served by women who circulate around the room with their dishes on a cart. You look and choose which ones you want as they roll by. You're charged by the dish.

The dumplings called momos are Nepali, not Chinese.
