  • Join us as we eat dim sum at Honolulu Chinatown! My friend, Camille, and I go Sing Cheong Yuan, a Chinese bakery located at 1027 Maunakea St, Honolulu (on the island of Oahu, Hawaii). They offer take out items, and they're well known for their mooncakes, manapaus (cha siu baos), and more. We bought a lot items and eat them at a park. Enjoy!

    Half moon dumpling shown is what my Canto/Toisanese/SzeYip fam calls a fun-gor or steamed giaoji. Definite home dumpling we would make. Grew up using tortilla press to make the dough into round wrappers, and pass to my aunts, poh and mom to fill/crimp.

    My favorite Chinese bakery in Chinatown! But you should have gotten the macadamia nut chews along with the peanut ones for your mom. With that macadamia nut version, you'll really be telling your mom that you love her.
    Been to the Golden Gate Bakery many, many times. But sorry, I think Sing Cheong Yuan is better. But the gai mei bao at GGB is a winner!
    Mahalo for this video. Hopefully I'll be home to visit my mom before the end of the year and go to Honolulu's Chinatown.

    I live in Calgary, Canada. Hong Hong/Cantonese. My mother used to make those leaf-wrapped things which we call sticky rice from scratch. More filling and variety. I used to dip pieces in sugar.

    Dim sum is sit down and order from cart or menu. Manapua, Hawaiian version of dim sum, is order takeout go home and eat. Some items are adapted to Hawaii.
