siu mai

frozen siu mai ready in 2 mins in a microwave.

it's a product of hong kong, no made in china here. (i still don't recognize hk as apart of china)

they remind me of the ones they have in hk 7-11. they have a microwave for you to make and eat them there. sometimes i wish we had that here for late night snacks at 7-11.

they're made by the people of doll dim sum. the brand is doll, and in chinese it's "gong jie". i think it's the same brand as the "gong jie mien." that's what people call in hk generally call instant noodles. there is a word for instant noodles though, and it's called jik sik mien (instantly eat noodles)

i guess it's the same way americans generally call all instant noodles "cup-o-noodle", or call tissue "kleenex".
