Creating cute animal-shaped dim sum kept a group of young children – and several adults – happily entertained at Social Place, a contemporary Chinese restaurant in Central, for the afternoon on 17 August. More than 20 members and their children teamed up with a number of foster children from Small Group Homes for the Chamber’s Parent-child Volunteer Dim Sum Workshop, and worked together learning how to make these tasty delicacies. 

While the handmade “red bean piggy buns” and “shrimp and vegetable rabbit dumplings” were being cooked in the steamer, participants relaxed and chatted over afternoon tea and assorted dim sum. 

Members who took part in the programme said that they and their children had enjoyed this fun and meaningful event, and were pleased to have the opportunity to spend time with some of Hong Kong’s less fortunate children.
