i'm basically a dim sum addict, and that's why i decided to buy this book after reading all those glowing reviews.however, after getting the book, i found that some recipes are quite dull.for example, the shrimp wanton soup called for a chicken stock that didn't suit the shrimp taste at all (my taste bud was conflicted).yes, i stuck to the recipe word for word so i know it's not my fault.also, the siu mai recipes used rice, which was weird (i'm accustomed to eating siu mai at the restaurant ...
