Dishes to know on this menu

Dim sum: The Cantonese tradition of small steamed, fried and baked plates (dumplings, buns, rice rolls, ribs) eaten with tea, usually from mid-morning to early afternoon. Dishes are priced by plate size (small, medium, large, special), so a table of four can try a dozen things for the cost of two entrées. On this menu as: Dim Sum — Dumplings & Buns · Dim Sum — Plates & Bites · Dim Sum — Noodles & Rice.
Char siu: Cantonese barbecued pork: strips of shoulder or belly marinated in hoisin, honey, soy and five-spice, roasted until the edges char and lacquer red. Sliced over rice, folded into buns, or hung in the window with roast duck and soy chicken. On this menu as: Steamed BBQ Pork Bun · Rice Noodle Soup with Shrimp Wontons or BBQ Pork · Egg Noodle Soup with Shrimp Wontons or BBQ Pork.
Wonton: Small dumplings in a thin square wrapper, loosely gathered rather than pleated. Served in clear broth (wonton soup, often with egg noodles), deep-fried as an appetizer, or tossed in chili oil as a Sichuan cold plate, "red oil wontons" or hong you chao shou. On this menu as: Rice Noodle Soup with Shrimp Wontons or BBQ Pork · Egg Noodle Soup with Shrimp Wontons or BBQ Pork.
Tofu (bean curd): Pressed soybean curd, from custard-soft (for mapo tofu and soups) to firm (for stir-fries and braises). Fried tofu puffs soak up sauce; tofu skin (yuba) is the sheet lifted off simmering soy milk, rolled and braised or fried as a "vegetarian duck". On this menu as: Beancurd Roll · Crispy Tofu.
Har gow: Steamed shrimp dumplings with a translucent, chewy wheat-starch skin pleated around whole or chopped shrimp. The classic test of a dim sum kitchen: the wrapper should be thin enough to see the pink through it but strong enough to lift with chopsticks without tearing. On this menu as: Shrimp Dumpling.
Potstickers: Crescent-shaped dumplings (jiaozi) pan-fried on one side until crisp, then steamed in the same pan so the tops stay tender. Boiled versions of the same dumpling are usually listed as "boiled dumplings" or shui jiao; the fillings (pork and cabbage, pork and chive, shrimp, or vegetable) are the same. On this menu as: Pork Potsticker.
