Author's Game Description
This is not one of the Chinese Pentathlon Games. See how good you are reading a Chinese Menu and then decide if you want to order what you see. Careful, there are some trick items that are not foods at all!

I'm a bit puzzled about a couple of aspects. First, I've always seen dim sum as lunch rather than breakfast food. And that is certainly the case in London's Chinatown. Second, in Australian Chinatowns (Sydney and Melbourne), we use the term yum cha instead of dim sum for a dumplings lunch. Perhaps a Chinese member of the site could clarify these points ...

OK, but you have two entries for "Chinese Martial Arts" with different capitalization, which makes them non-interchangeable.
I claim a 100% on this game, as that is my only "error".

It would be better menu reading practice if the menu were in Chinese writing.

The general food knowledge came from Wikopedia when the game was made. Dim Sum was shown as several light dishes served as a breakfast and yum cha was a tea drinking session. The variations came from the various regions of the world where Chinese populations are large. Some of these dishes are not even too popular in China, but appear on all USA Chinese menus.
