Discovering vegetarian dim sum at China Pearl

The China Pearl added 10 vegetarian dishes to its dim sum lineup, made with fresh ingredients and vegetable oil. No artificial tofu “meats” are to be seen, leaving out processed additives for clean vegetable flavors.

Confessions of a chopsticks novice

Since moving to Boston and beginning my AmeriCorps service in Chinatown, I have encountered many Chinese traditions that were previously unknown to me.

Bubor Cha Cha’s delicious dim sum hits the spot

Located in the former Grand Chau Chow restaurant, Bubor Cha Cha is in the heart of Boston’s Chinatown. The elaborate interior features a ceiling with swirling clouds and tropical décor, making it stand out. Bubor Cha Cha is named after a Malaysian dessert soup served either cold or hot, consisting of coconut milk, taro, yam, sweet potatoes and corn.
