The deviation isn’t necessarily a bad thing - it’s a bit like American Italian vs European Italian food (and similar to different Chinese cuisines I bet, there is a lot of variation even within Italy alone for some things) - but it’s still always cool to see ‘source material’ and origins!

I love how he teaches, for example - explaining why pork should be cut that and that size, what it will do to the meat and dumpling and why, not just "cut it in half inch cubes, add to the pan, do this and that". Makes you understand not just remember movements. 👍

Totally the way BA needs to go forward. This was so therapeutic and the camera angles were perfect. I loved this BA.

This is probably one of the most informative and entertaining cooking videos I've ever seen on KZread. I could watch Chef Cheung cook all day.

In Jamaica we make chicken feet curried with a touch of coconut milk and butter beans...or in a savory pumpkin soup with scotch bonnet pepper and dumplings..it feeds a large family a hot filling meal.

HE IS EXCELLENT!! His knife skill, his rolling skill, his voice, his story.. are just perfect! More of his video please! I’d love to be his student 😢

Great job on this one! However, if you get a traditional Cantonese dim sum chef here he or she’s gonna make most of these in a different way. Especially the chicken feet and shrimp dumplings. What’s presented here is heavily Americanized dim sum and also simplified. The chicken feet dish should usually takes more than half a day to make and the sauce is a combination of million different sauces to make it sweet and savory and complex af. Chicken feet should be boiled, deep fried, put it in ice water, boiled again and then steamed. Shrimp dumplings have too much bamboo shoots and it should have a whole shrimp in it. Egg tart should have the flakiest pastry you’ll ever imagine. I’m not saying he’s ways of making them were wrong(They are all food) but I’m Chinese and the presentation of these dishes are not what I’m familiar with.

He absolutely killed this video. Loved being fully immersed in it. Much respect to Chef Cheung

Beautiful and impressive presentation, while diffusing the intimidation of approaching these exacting techniques. I feel like I can watch Chef Cheung's video a few times then try doing it while following along and actually pull off a reasonable result. That tip was GOLD, about adding a little of the filling to the tart and returning to the oven to prevent a soggy crust. Looking forward to more like this.✨

As a hongkonger, i would say the recipe in this video is not that authentic, but it is understandable that when a dishes travelled to other places, its taste and ingredients will be slightly adjusted according to the environment there.

He needs to learn the basic first. Dimsum itself is hard to master and if he goes around the world doing this kind of video people might think that dimsum is easy or so on. while i appreciate what he did but i'd rather recommend someone who knows the 'Real Dimsum making' rather than this guy in the video. Dimsum is no t just wrapping dumplings It's way more complex than what people are thinking.
