In Mandarin 白芝麻 - bai zhi ma means white sesame seed and 黑芝麻 - hei zhi ma means black sesame seed.

In Chinese cooking, black and white sesame seeds are more than just a garnish—they're a key ingredient that adds rich flavor and a delightful crunch to our dim sum. From enhancing the nuttiness of fillings to adding a touch of elegance, these tiny seeds are a big part of what makes our dishes so special.

Highlighting one of our most popular dishes we serve here at Cai's Dim Sum: dandan noodles (dandan mian - 担担面).

A little about...

Originating from Chinese Sichuan cuisine, this dish contains a spice that is noted for its "numbing spice," (huajiao -花椒/sichuan peppercorn). This dish traditionally contains preserved vegetables, minced pork, scallions, Sichuan pepper and chili oil over cold noodles, however, we have our own take on it while keeping the key components to what makes this dish. If you love spice and have never experienced this numbing spice, this dish could be worth a try!

An urn of chrysanthemum tea 🌼 a mellow mildly sweet taste that is not overly floral like jasmine or lavender. When paired with a little honey and some ice it makes for a perfectly refreshing drink for a hot summers day.

Pi day you say??? Sharing with you a version of a Chinese pie 盒子 （hezi)! A similar concept, however, it’s a savory pie filled with chive and egg.

Happy Pie Day! 3.14。。。
