WIWT: Yum Cha

The boything and I caught up with friends for yum cha today, a good excuse to sit around and eat delicious things!

If you’ve never had yum cha before, here’s a quick low down: you sit down and servers come around with trolleys laden with delicious food. If you want whatever tasty treat they’re offering, you let them know and  they place it on your table. There is a little card on your table where they note down what dishes you’ve received and at the end of the meal you pay by however many of each kind of dish you’ve eaten.

Divided between your table, it’s a cheap and fun way to eat (ours worked out to be a little over $14 per person) that allows you to try a little of everything (while drinking gallons of Chinese tea). I had my definite favourites including deep fried squid, steamed greens (surely I can’t be the only one who loves vegetables?!) and pineapple buns (a sweet bread roll filled with pineapple coconut custard). I’m actually drooling a little bit just thinking about it!

For those of you who wanted to see a little more the Chubby Cartwheels crop top that I featured in my Aussie Curves post this week, here you go! Being winter, it’s not nearly warm enough to bare my belly, so I’m rocking the crop with a singlet/vest/tank top (what do you call it where you’re from? I say singlet but apparently that confuses some people?) underneath.

What did you get up to this weekend? Have you ever been to yum cha?
