Dim Sum is a range of small Chinese dishes that are traditionally enjoyed at tea houses for brunch. Dim Sum means “to touch the heart” in Chinese. It describes people sharing a pot of tea while eating little comforting dishes. Originating in the Canton region, this course was created in order to satisfy the traders and travellers who would stop for rest and business. More than just food, dim sum needs to be enjoyed with good company and good conversation.

We plan to make pineapple buns in the first of our six part dim sum making series.

We meet weekly to discuss topics that Women of Color face on campus and in the greater community beyond. Our aim is to foster a safe space for women of color to come together, decompress, and cultivate joy.
