How To Delight Your Palate And Stomach With Chinese Cuisine

By Joseph Kennedy


The first and foremost need of man is food. To this extent, the early occupants of the planet used up of his time in acquiring this base need. They had to play hide and seek and catch me if you can with the other animal inhabitants of the planet. In modern times man no longer need to be like this. All he plays with now is his stomach. He satisfies the belly with exquisite delight from dim sum international buffet Los Angeles CA.

Tribes were formed in early days as families began to group themselves together. An individual would emerge as a leader of this group who coordinated its activities. These tribes engaged in gathering and hunting for nutrition Their main nutrition was from berries, plants, fruits, and meat from animals that they hunted down. This was how people were able to survive.

With fire being discovered and mastered, the way in which human ate became a little bit more sophisticated. The art of cooking was slowly gaining ground as people began experimenting with different food mixtures including spices and herbs. This led to the great search for the spice islands which occurred the age of voyages and exploration.

The different food preference of populations is largely attributed to the availability of resources in each locality. This preference is handed down from generation to generation and is already ingrained in the psyche. This can be observed in the way meals are prepared and cooked. Each region has a different abundance of different types of animals and plants.

Generally, it is widely believed people in Europe and the Americas are more into wheat bread and pastries, wheat being very abundant in their area. Africans are hooked into fruits, tapioca, and other tubers which thrive in dry environments. Asians on the other hand just love which is very abundant in the region along various types of spices.

One particular region in China came up with the idea of serving unlimited tea together other small in quantity dishes that were common to the place. This was called yum cha. This was intended not as a meal but as a go between breakfast and lunch but could not also be classified as a snack. It is sometimes referred to as brunch, a shortcut term for breakfast and lunch.

This became extremely popular and became widespread in the United States and arrived on land through the great Chinese migration that happened at the time of industrial renaissance as railroad tracks were being laid down all over across the continent. Great railroad companies employed these immigrants to work on laying down the tracks. These groups made their own communities which are the origins of Chinatown or little China.

Dim sum carts carry a variety of delightful dish items on and in it, mostly steamed in native bamboo steamers which add flavor to the cuisine. These carts are pushed around by servers from table to table where customers can just choose and pick the items that they like to eat. Food served is distinctive of Chinese origin and influence and brings with it an exotic eating experience.

People are always adventurous, and more so when it comes to something that will delight the stomach and taste buds. These physical organs connive with each other to push a man into eating something that is strange to them like unfamiliar cuisine. But as territorial barriers are slowly being removed, cross cultural cuisine is now becoming more and more popular.
