I love the rice dumpling with .... pork and chestnuts filling. This is the absolute best to eat with a cup of thick Chinese tea. Absolute heaven on earth.

Or, the sweet rice dumpling (made from glutinous rice) dipped into that brown sugar sauce.

And that bamboo leaves used to wrap the dumplings. They smell wonderful.
