It is said that you are what you eat. In this case, anything you put in your mouth becomes you. I cannot help but marvel at this truth with the thought that regular intake of fine dimsum or "siomai" would become me. But kidding aside, this is one of the best contributions of the Chinese in the country with all their delicious cuisine found in the homes of Filipino families including our culture. The Chinese have long been with us even before the arrival of the Spanish conquistadores. So before the paella, there was already the pancit and the dimsum.
