If you haven't grown up eating it or you haven't been introduced by friends or family dim sum is one of the most intimidating foods to try.

如果你不是吃著它長大的，或者你沒有被朋友或家人介紹過，那麼點心是最令人生畏的食物之一。

I would love to help break down the intimidation factor for you and give you a little bit of an explanation about what you're ordering, how to eat it, all that jazz.

我很願意幫助你打破恐懼的因素，給你解釋一下你所點的東西，如何吃，所有這些東西。

If you had on over to my personal youtube page, it's called king kogi, I actually do a review of my favorite dim sum restaurant in Toronto.

如果你到我的個人youtube頁面，它被稱為king kogi，我實際上對我在多倫多最喜歡的點心店做了評論。

I've been going there since I was a teenager and of course during cold more it made it a lot more difficult so I did delivery and it was still amazing.

我從十幾歲就開始去那裡，當然在寒冷的時候，它使它變得更加困難，所以我做了分娩，它仍然是驚人的。

But for today on H.

但對於今天在H.

HMC studio, I'd like to tell you a little childhood story all about dim sum.

HMC工作室，我想告訴你一個關於點心的童年小故事。

So a lot of you already know that I grew up with a neighbor named mickey.

所以你們很多人已經知道，我和一個叫米奇的鄰居一起長大。

I did a video about going to J.

我做了一個關於去J的視頻。

Town with her recently and we had Corey at her house and when I was in middle school mickey and her mom and I all went grocery shopping and for lunch, her mom took us to a dim sum restaurant walking into this restaurant was like nothing I had ever experienced before.

最近和她在一起，我們在她家吃了科裡，當我上國中時，米奇和她媽媽還有我都去買菜，午餐時，她媽媽帶我們去了一家點心店，走進這家餐廳，是我以前從未經歷過的。

First of all, it was like downstairs, if I recall and when you go in it's like a gigantic vast room, something that could host a wedding or some kind of an event.

首先，如果我記得的話，它就在樓下，當你進去的時候，它就像一個巨大的廣闊的房間，可以舉辦婚禮或某種活動。

It was filled with circular tables which was also very unique for me and every table could hold about 8 to 10 people.

裡面擺滿了圓形的桌子，這對我來說也是非常獨特的，每張桌子可以容納大約8到10人。

There were tiny circular plates and dishes and weird little baskets of course these were bamboo steamers, but I didn't know that and they were everywhere.

有小小的圓形盤子和碟子，還有奇怪的小籃子，當然這些是竹製蒸籠，但我不知道，它們到處都是。

All over the tables, there were just three of us.

在所有的桌子上，只有我們三個人。

And so they sat us at a table with strangers and I had never before joined a table of strangers to eat a meal, luckily the table is quite big, so you're not really sitting with them, you're just kind of sharing this, this mutual space, but you can see what they're ordering and you can see all these little dishes on their table and you're kind of like, what's this, what's that?

所以他們讓我們坐在一張有陌生人的桌子上，我以前從來沒有加入過一桌陌生人的飯菜，幸運的是桌子相當大，所以你不是真的和他們坐在一起，你只是有點分享這個，這個相互的空間，但是你可以看到他們在點什麼，你可以看到他們桌子上所有這些小菜，你有點像，這是什麼，那是什麼？

What are they doing?

他們在做什麼？

When I looked over I saw these white squishy looking buns, they just seemed like impossibly soft.

當我看過去時，我看到這些白色的、看起來很軟的包子，它們看起來就是不可能的軟。

I saw these translucent sea shells filled with pink on the inside.

我看到這些半透明的海殼，裡面充滿了粉紅色。

I find out later it's going to be shrimp.

我後來發現是要吃蝦。

I saw these little bowls filled with these little roles that looked like kind of crepes, but like super saucy.

我看到這些小碗裡裝滿了這些小角色，看起來就像一種可麗餅，但像超級醬汁。

I was completely out of my comfort zone and really blown away as to what I was going to be eating First.

我完全脫離了我的舒適區，真的被嚇到了，不知道我將會吃什麼。

They brought us over a very humble looking white pot of tea and we all have these little tiny white glasses with no handles on them which was unique for me to waiters and waitresses were zipping around zipping in and out of like a back room and they'd come up with these little silver trays and trays were just stacked with like dishes and steam and like little basket and I had no idea what was going on.

他們給我們送來了一壺看起來非常簡陋的白茶，我們都有這些沒有把手的小白杯，這對我來說是獨一無二的，服務員和女服務員在後面的房間裡進進出出，他們拿著這些銀色的小托盤，托盤上堆滿了菜和蒸汽，像小籃子一樣，我不知道發生了什麼。

Mickey's mom stopped a woman and just pointed and asked for a bunch of these little dishes and she would just like to point at it and they would just put it on the table in front of us.

米奇的媽媽攔住一個女人，只是指著她要了一堆這樣的小菜，她就喜歡指著它，他們就會把它放在我們面前的桌子上。

When have I ever gone to a restaurant when there wasn't really a menu present where you just picked things off of a cart as it went by.

我什麼時候去過一個沒有真正的菜單的餐廳，在那裡你只是在推車上挑選東西，因為它經過。

It was almost like a buffet in reverse like you sit at the table and they bring you the items.

這幾乎就像一個反向的自助餐，就像你坐在桌子旁，他們給你帶來的物品。

I also noticed that even though I saw the same lady come by, she didn't have the same stuff on her tray.

我還注意到，儘管我看到同一位女士走過來，但她的托盤上沒有同樣的東西。

Some stuff look like little tiny custard tarts.

有些東西看起來像小的小吉士餡餅。

Some things looked like they might have been spicy.

有些東西看起來可能是辛辣的。

I couldn't tell what the differences were in front of me on the table where these little tiny bottles that looked like all these different potions of sauces.

我不知道在我面前的桌子上有什麼區別，這些小瓶子看起來就像所有這些不同的醬汁藥水。

So one of them was a soy sauce that mickey poured for me in a tiny little plate and then there was like a spicy looking oil and then another darker one which I found out later as a type of vinegar and there were like tiny little spoons and I just had no idea how to put these together.

所以其中一個是醬油，米奇給我倒在一個小盤子裡，然後有一個看起來很辣的油，然後還有一個顏色較深的，我後來發現是一種醋，還有一些小勺子，我只是不知道如何把這些東西放在一起。

Later on I learned that this type of restaurant where people are pushing these little trays going to the back kitchen and getting fresh items and bringing them out is a very traditional way that dim sum restaurants used to work.

後來我瞭解到，這種餐廳裡的人推著這些小托盤到後廚去拿新鮮的東西並把它們拿出來，是點心店過去非常傳統的工作方式。

But apparently a lot of them don't do that anymore.

但顯然，他們中的很多人都不這麼做了。

Instead have a piece of paper and on the piece of paper you can see the item that you want to order and you'll write a number or italie.

相反，有一張紙，在這張紙上你可以看到你想訂購的物品，你會寫一個數字或斜體字。

So if you want one of that item, you just write one if you want to you right to and then you hand that paper to a waiter or waitress.

是以，如果你想吃那個東西，你就寫一個，如果你想你就寫，然後你把那張紙遞給服務員或女服務員。

They'll bring it to the kitchen in the back and then they'll bring out the dishes kind of bit by bit or all at once, depending on what you've ordered.

他們會把菜送到後面的廚房，然後他們會根據你點的菜，一點一點地把菜端出來，或者一次全部端出來。

Well you guys, it was shockingly delicious.

好吧，你們這些傢伙，它是令人震驚的美味。

It blew my little fragile mind.

這讓我脆弱的小心靈大為震驚。

I tried shockingly delicious morsels, things that were stuffed plump pink shrimp and they had chewy outside noodle like textures but it wasn't quite pasta and it wasn't quite sticky and gummy.

我嘗試了令人震驚的美味小菜，那些東西塞滿了豐滿的粉紅色的蝦，它們外面有嚼勁的麵條一樣的質地，但它不完全是意大利麵，也不完全是粘稠的膠質。

I couldn't place my finger on what this texture was.

我無法確定這種紋理是什麼。

Of course a lot of dim sum is made with things like Kuantan Whoppers, wanton weapons things that are made with like potato starch or maybe tapioca starch things that are kind of more rice, peppery.

當然，很多點心是用關東煮、餛飩等東西做的，這些東西是用洋芋澱粉或木薯澱粉做的，有點像米飯，有胡椒味。

So it has that kind of pull that texture to it kind of similar to when you have mochi and marquis has that pull that bounce but not as sticky.

是以，它有那種拉動的質感，有點類似於你吃麻糬的感覺，而侯爵也有那種拉動的彈力，但沒有那麼粘稠。

This was just a texture that I had never had before and it was delightful.

這只是一種我以前從未有過的質地，它很令人高興。

I had these yellow steamed things stuffed with ground pork and shrimp that you dipped and bit into it.

我有這些黃色的蒸熟的東西，裡面塞滿了豬肉和蝦米，你蘸著吃，咬著吃。

It was like these little mini meatballs but they didn't taste like the meatballs.

這就像這些小的迷你肉丸子，但它們的味道不像肉丸子。

I was used to having, I had these soft white buns and when you pulled them apart inside it was filled with like a pulled pork in a sweet and kind of savory barbecue sauce.

我習慣於吃，我有這些柔軟的白麵包，當你把它們拉開時，裡面充滿了像拉豬肉的甜味和那種鹹味的燒烤醬。

I even have to take a leaf and open up the leaf and inside of it was rice and I had never seen such a huge leaf in my life.

我甚至要拿起一片葉子，打開葉子，裡面是米，我一生中從未見過如此巨大的葉子。

I will explain this leaf in my video on King Cokie by the way.

順便說一下，我將在我關於King Cokie的視頻中解釋這片葉子。

Oh and they even had dessert.

哦，他們甚至還有甜點。

They had custard tarts, they had buns filled with sweet stuff on the inside.

他們有吉士餡餅，他們有包子，裡面裝滿了甜的東西。

I even had tofu that tasted like almond, but like a sweet almond and you kind of scooped it out of a bowl.

我甚至吃過豆腐，味道像杏仁，但像甜杏仁，你有點像從碗裡舀出來的。

All these things were like what is going on, What this exists.

所有這些事情都像發生了什麼，這存在什麼。

It felt like this underground culture that I had no idea about.

感覺就像這種地下文化，我對它一無所知。

Well now you can see how foodie Martino was born.

那麼現在你可以看到美食家馬蒂諾是如何誕生的。

I had all these interesting experiences at a young age that made me feel like there was more out there in the world food wise and I definitely have a big thanks to mickey and her family for introducing me to so many different things along with all my other neighbors who were from different places around the world and so I was able to eat their food for breakfast or their food for lunch and go wow is this Canadian food or it's not Canadian food?

我在很小的時候就有這些有趣的經歷，讓我覺得世界上有更多的食物，我絕對要感謝米奇和她的家人，他們向我介紹了許多不同的東西，還有我的其他鄰居，他們來自世界各地的不同地方，所以我能夠在早餐時吃他們的食物，或者在午餐時吃他們的食物，然後哇，這是加拿大的食物還是不是加拿大的食物？

Well it's kind of Canadian food is very confusing, but luckily Toronto is such a multinational city.

嗯，這是一種加拿大的食物是非常混亂的，但幸運的是多倫多是這樣一個多國的城市。

Markham, Toronto, Mississauga, all these different places have different tiny little burrows so you can go to like chinatown, you can go to little Italy you can have african food from all types of places in africa, you can have indian food from all over India, it's just such an incredible wonderland of food later on in life when I went to Beijing and Taiwan I had the chance to try dim sum over there as well and you know I was pretty blown away at how legit the dim sum was in Toronto and in Markham I mean it didn't taste that different.

萬錦、多倫多、密西沙加，所有這些不同的地方都有不同的小洞穴，所以你可以去像唐人街，你可以去小意大利，你可以吃到來自非洲所有類型的地方的非洲食物，你可以吃到來自印度各地的印度食物。這真是一個令人難以置信的食物仙境，後來我去了北京和臺灣，我有機會嘗試那裡的點心，你知道我非常震驚於多倫多的點心和萬錦的點心是多麼合法，我的意思是它的味道並沒有什麼不同。

Obviously the ingredients are different because of that whole like you know terroir thing like where something grows, affects the produce, having an orange in japan or having an orange in Korea is different than having an orange in florida or in Toronto you can't help it the soil the earth, the water, how you feed it, that will help change the taste of things.

顯然，成分是不同的，因為整個像你知道的風土人情的事情，如東西生長的地方，影響產品，在日本或韓國有一個橙子與在佛羅里達或多倫多有一個橙子是不同的，你不能幫助它的土壤，地球，水，你如何餵它，這將有助於改變東西的味道。

So having them, some in other parts of the world of course has a different taste because they're using local ingredients but having them some in Toronto, it wasn't that far off the mark.

是以，在世界其他地方吃這些東西，當然有不同的味道，因為他們使用的是當地的原料，但在多倫多吃一些，也不是那麼離譜。

It was pretty legit there.

那裡是相當合法的。

I say too legit to quit, too legit, too legit to quit.

我說太合法了，太合法了，太合法了，不能放棄。

Please tell me somebody, somebody knows what I'm talking about please.

請告訴我有人，有人知道我在說什麼。

Now historically dim sum was actually made to accompany T.

現在，從歷史上看，點心實際上是為了配合T而製作的。

So people that speak Cantonese might call it um to and I know I'm gonna butcher all this stuff because I don't speak Cantonese or mandarin.

所以，講廣東話的人可能會把它叫做嗯，我知道我將會把這些東西都弄糟，因為我不講廣東話或國語。

I've only spoken korean and japanese and so they are not the same.

我只說過韓國語和日本語，所以它們是不一樣的。

So many death songs and vowels that I didn't know existed from different parts of the world in different languages.

如此多的死亡歌曲和元音，我不知道有來自世界不同地區的不同語言的存在。

So young literally means drinking tea and travelers would be traveling through china and they would stop at these little restaurants to have t kind of like how we might stop to have a coffee and they started to invent these little tiny morsels that they could have with it.

是以，年輕的字面意思是喝茶，旅行者會在中國旅行，他們會在這些小餐館停下來喝茶，就像我們可能停下來喝咖啡一樣，他們開始發明這些小的小點心，他們可以和它一起吃。

Apparently dim sum is like 2500 years old and it's like historically talked about in poems and songs like that's pretty amazing.

顯然，點心有2500年的歷史，它在歷史上被詩詞和歌曲所提及，這非常令人驚訝。

Nowadays, dim sum is so popular that there are a lot of places that served him some as their only thing that they serve all day long but there are still places that will only serve dim sum for example on Sundays in the morning or places that will only do it in the morning specifically.

如今，點心是如此受歡迎，以至於有很多地方把他作為他們全天唯一的服務對象，但仍有一些地方只在週日上午提供點心，或者只在上午專門做點心的地方。

It's almost like a breakfast meal.

這幾乎就像一頓早餐。

So if you do head off to a dim sum restaurant in your neighborhood, make sure you check their hours to see if they're actually serving all day dim somewhere not.

是以，如果你真的去你附近的一家點心店，確保你檢查他們的時間，看看他們是否真的在某個地方全天供應點心。

So for the first time we're going to a dim sum restaurant, it can be absolutely intimidating.

是以，對於我們第一次去點心店，這絕對是令人生畏的。

So I want to share with you just a few of my favorite items that I order and I would love for you guys in the comment section to talk about your favorite items as well.

是以，我想與你們分享我訂購的一些最喜歡的物品，我希望你們在評論區也能談談你們最喜歡的物品。

And I also love it.

而且我也很喜歡它。

If you let people know what city you're in and maybe the name of your favorite restaurant and that way people can kind of look it up online and go find it on their own.

如果你讓人們知道你在哪個城市，也許還有你最喜歡的餐廳的名字，這樣人們就可以在網上查找，自己去找。

I apologize in advance for my pronunciation.

我對我的發音提前表示歉意。

First up har gow these are shrimp dumplings and they have been steamed instead of fried.

首先是har gow，這些是蝦餃，它們被蒸過而不是炸過。

So when you're used to having a dumpling that has that crispy exterior, this one's gonna be translucent.

是以，當你習慣於吃一個外表酥脆的餃子時，這個餃子會是半透明的。

That was like that seashell shaped one that I saw a really good har gow.

這就像那個貝殼形狀的，我看到一個非常好的哈高。

The outside has not been overcooked.

外表沒有被過度烹調。

If it tastes like gummy or like falls apart and the shrimp is pouring out, then it's been over steamed cheung fun.

如果它吃起來像軟糖，或者像散開了，蝦肉倒出來，那麼它就被蒸得過了張家界。

These are fat rice noodles inside of it.

這些是裡面的胖米粉。

They put either shrimp or they put beef or they might put pork and it's rolled up like a crepe and that steamed and then they'll often serve that with a sauce on top.

他們要麼放蝦，要麼放牛肉，也可能放豬肉，像可麗餅一樣捲起來，然後蒸熟，然後他們通常會在上面放醬汁。

It's kind of like a sweet soy sauce.

它有點像甜醬油。

If I had to describe it to my, this is also called shu mai.

如果我不得不向我描述，這也叫舒邁。

Sometimes it's an open faced dumpling, so it's a yellow wanton looking rapper and they put the meat in the center so it's ground pork and shrimp and they put it in and they close it like this, the top you can still see this is what I thought was a meatball when I was a kid.

有時它是一種敞開式的餃子，所以它是一種黃色的餛飩外觀的說唱機，他們把肉放在中間，所以它是豬肉和蝦的碎肉，他們把它放進去，然後像這樣合上，上面你仍然可以看到這是我小時候認為的肉丸。

It's quite smooth and ground up and the flavors are just fantastic.

它相當光滑，磨得很好，味道實在是太棒了。

No becau also known as radish cake daikon when it's all ground up, they put it together in like a little flat patty cake that almost looks like a hash brown and resembles a hash brown and texture and sometimes they'll throw little bits of like meat or sausage or bacon in there and they pan fry it turn up cake is so good.

不，因為也被稱為蘿蔔糕的蘿蔔，當它全部磨碎後，他們把它放在一起，就像一個小的扁平的餅狀蛋糕，幾乎看起來像一個哈士奇，類似於哈士奇和紋理，有時他們會扔一點像肉或香腸或培根在那裡，他們平底鍋煎它變成蛋糕是那麼好。

I never ordered it before because the word cake makes me feel like it's gonna be sweet, but it's not, it is savory, think of it like a savory hash brown.

我以前從未點過它，因為蛋糕這個詞讓我覺得它會是甜的，但它不是，它是鹹的，把它想成是鹹的雜燴餅。

I had one in Taiwan that blew my freaking mind.

我在臺灣有一個，讓我大吃一驚。

It's become my bar like the bar of daikon cake, daikon radish cake and and I, I fear that I will never be able to reach that daikon cake ever again.

它已經成為我的酒吧，就像蘿蔔糕的酒吧，蘿蔔糕和和我，我擔心我將永遠無法達到那個蘿蔔糕。

I will have to return one day, luckily our friends there Ron and Phoebe, I'm coming to crash at your place.

我總有一天要回來的，幸運的是我們在那裡的朋友羅恩和菲比，我要到你們那裡去住。

Loamy G or no maggie, it's like a huge leaf and inside of it is like a glutinous rice gluten.

無論是否有瑪吉，它都像一片巨大的葉子，裡面就像糯米麵筋。

This is just another way to say sticky rice and it's been steamed inside the leaf and it has a little bit of chinese sausage in it, which I explain more in my video on kin kogi smells amazing and it tastes amazing and it's so intimidating if you've never had to eat food from a leaf but don't miss out on it.

這只是說糯米飯的另一種方式，它在葉子裡被蒸熟了，裡面有一點中國香腸，我在我的視頻中更多地解釋了這一點，Kin kogi聞起來很香，吃起來也很香，如果你從來沒有吃過葉子裡的食物，它是如此令人生畏，但不要錯過它。

It's so good if you'd like to hear my review of dim sum head on over to king kogi on Youtube, that's where I'm putting up the video of me chowing down and eating all my favorite types and I hope I can inspire you guys to head out there and try some of this food because it's so good and it's gonna blow your freaking mind think of it like a spanish tapas the way that you're sharing it.

如果你想聽我對點心的評論，請到Youtube上的king kogi去，我在那裡放了我大吃特吃的視頻，我希望我可以激勵你們去那裡嘗試一些這種食物，因為它是如此的好，它會讓你大吃一驚，把它想成是西班牙的小吃，你要分享它。

It's like a little tiny dishes that you share with lots of friends and family or if you're like me, you can just eat it alone because you're a foodie, let me know in the comment section below what your favorite in some is and please again share your favorite restaurants and what city you're in because maybe you'll help someone go up there and explore.

這就像一個小的小菜，你可以和很多朋友和家人分享，或者如果你像我一樣，你可以獨自吃，因為你是一個美食家，讓我在下面的評論部分知道你最喜歡的在一些是什麼，請再次分享你最喜歡的餐館和你在哪個城市，因為也許你會幫助別人上去探索。

All right guys, how do you sign off from the stuff?

好了，夥計們，你們如何從東西上簽字？

I don't know.

我不知道。

See you on the internet.

在互聯網上見。

I mean, I guess we're on the internet.

我的意思是，我想我們是在互聯網上。

So yeah can we just talk about Loki?

所以是的，我們能不能只談談洛基？

I'm not gonna say anything.

我不會說什麼。

I'm not gonna do any spoilers, Loki.

我不會做任何破壞性的事情，洛基。
