Yi Sang Dim Sum and Wine Culinary Exploration II @Yisang Restaurant BKK
On Friday 24 November, Yi Sang Chinese Restaurant BKK in association with Liquid Assets and Delas Cambodia hosts an evening of
The Joy of Yisang Artisanal Dim
Sum paired with Hand-Crafted Fine Wine
Following
a very successful event at Yisang Riverside, in which International Wine
Master Darren Gall of Liquid Assets Fine Wines, Cambodia paired his selection of , various hand
crafted wines from family-owned wineries
with master chef Luu Meng’s artisan dim sum, Yi Sang Chinese Restaurant is delighted to
announce the second meeting of culinary traditions: authentic dim sum and fine
wines.
Around the
world, food and wine pairing has evolved to become a great art and integral
part of fine dining, Gall points out. “When Luu Meng invited me to pair wines
for a special dinner I was ecstatic.”
Historically,
bite-sized morsels of dim sum were served as a snack to go with Yum Cha
(literally “drinking tea”) but are now considered a full meal “in fact, it is
now very much the tea which is seen as the accompaniment and not the other way
around,” Darren Gall points out on Urban Flavours website.”Whilst tea is seen
to aid digestion and cleanse the palate in dim sum, the same can be said for
the ancient practice of drinking wine with food.”
The
culinary art of dim sum take years to perfect, and Luu Meng is a confirmed
master, guiding “his team of Dim Sum chefs to develop his Yi Sang restaurants
to deliver Dim Sum that is of the freshest and highest quality,” says Gall, “creating handmade, artisan dim
sum in keeping with the traditions and origins of this very special dining
experience.”
Mr Luu is
also a culinary innovator who seeks to enhance classic recipes. “I am
constantly looking at and tasting traditional dishes [and] making minor
alterations to improve or modify their taste… and also fuse it with other
influences,” he tells Urban Flavours.

without ever dominating or even detracting
from the meal, just like the tea.”
With the
same combination of enthusiasm and dedication, Master Chef Luu Meng and
International Wine Master Darren Gall have once again combined their expertise,
setting the stage for another incredible culinary exploration.
