Yi Jing at ITC Ratnadipa introduces Dim Sum & Co., a first-of-its-kind curated series of dim sum in Colombo, running from June 26 to July 5.
The limited-time dining series features a newly curated selection of handcrafted dim sum, served for lunch and dinner, paired with signature cocktails designed to complement each dish. The beverage programme is crafted by Yi Jingโs mixologist to enhance flavour profiles and highlight the character of the cuisine.
As younger diners gravitate towards authentic global cuisines and meaningful culinary experiences, interest in regional Chinese cuisine continues to grow. Dim Sum & Co. responds to this shift by exploring the traditions, flavours and communal dining culture that define Chinaโs rich culinary heritage. Tracing its origins to the tea houses along ancient trade routes, dim sum was designed to be shared over cups of tea, bringing people together through food and conversation. Rooted in this Cantonese tea-house tradition, the series combines time-honoured craftsmanship with contemporary interpretations tailored to Colomboโs evolving palate.
โDim sum is a cuisine that demands both patience and precision, where every fold, filling and flavour has a purpose,โ said Chef Prithvi. โWith this menu, we wanted to go beyond familiarity and introduce guests to both authentic techniques and modern interpretations that reflect Yi Jingโs culinary philosophy. The result is a collection that is both respectful of its origins and exciting for todayโs diner.โ
Dim Sum & Co. further strengthens ITC Ratnadipaโs position as a destination for immersive, culture-driven culinary experiences in Colombo, where global traditions are reimagined through exceptional ingredients, craftsmanship and hospitality.
