Dating back to the original Spice Route trading days, dim sum is often referred to as the original brunch. The Cantonese tradition of rolling out an extensive selection of small plates is meant to be eaten at a leisurely pace, and shared family style. Restaurants around the world that are famous for dim sum often have long waits for a table on Saturday and Sunday. So, skip the line and DIY! Here are some of our top-rated creations that might be sampled off carts pushed around a busy dining room.

Meaty Goodness
Pork rules during this morning to mid-day feast, with ribs and bright pink slices of juicy tenderloin leading the way. Don’t be intimidated. These recipes are easier than you imagine, and the results rated four stars and higher in the reviews.

Fill ‘Em UP
Pot stickers, dumplings, steamed buns, bao all surprise and delight with the savory fillings inside. These crowd-pleasing creations are best dipped in seasoned soy sauce spiked with chili oil. Amp up the flavor by offering delicate threads of fresh ginger.

Veggies That Shine
Greens, steamed or stir-fried, brighten up the table, delivering crunchy textures. If you can’t locate the traditional gai lan, also known as Chinese broccoli or Chinese kale, the classic variety found in U.S. supermarkets will work well, too.
A Little Something Sweet
Dessert is typically something that’s just a couple of bites, served with hot tea. Light on the sugar, these meal ending treats aren’t meant to weigh you down. A plate of fresh fruit is also a refreshing way to wind down.
