Dim Sum No More..

I think I will not touch dim sum for another few months.
When I go for dimsum, normally I end up not eating them but other varieties like char siew pau, chee cheong fun, porridge, egg tarts, desserts and fish balls. Too much meat makes me queasy.... anyway, I think eating dim sum is very costly, I definitely cannot afford to go there often. Just a four of us will cost around RM50.00 and if there are 10, will surely cost more than a hundred ringgit. For a hundred ringgit, I rather order a set meal of rice and dishes..... yes, I am "kiamsiap" one...

    Oh, gosh, Dim Sum! I used to know what kind of food that was, but have forgotten. Not good, since my granddaughter is Chinese. If you scroll through some of my posts, you will see her. I have put you on my sidebar blogroll, as well! In answer to your comment, yes, what you can see in this post is out house and yard. I will take a picture of our house and yard in the near future and post it on my blog so you can see!

    I think eating dimsum once in a month is ok and if it is too oily, I like to order tea to go with the food.

    Not kiamsiap...just being smart, careful with money! It is certainly NOT cheap! Can get many other nice things with that kind of money. PLUS they always use too much msg!!! Very bad!

    Maybe for special occasion, want to treat special friends, special occasions...ok lah! We can pamper ourselves sometimes...but not ALL the time.

    Economy is not as good as people would want you to believe. Save!!!
