I think Baozi is the king of Chinese cuisine. They do differ from north to south.

 

 

But, did you ever try in a Guangdong Dim Sum restaurant and order a walnut baozi. They also have some steamed buns with some yellow (it's yolk and sugar mostly I guess) cream inside. Yum Yum 

Eorthisio:

Yes, some items in dim sum actually are baozi (like cha siu bao), they only use a cantonese name and the stuffing is different from what you find in the rest of the coutry, you can find steam bread with shrimp in Guangdong, I have never seen those anywhere else.

Dim Sum  all the way!  The rest of the country doesnt hold a candle to it. 

 

Chinese know this too.  Go to a nice hotel anywhere in the country and they are serving dimsum , not xi fan and bao zi. 

 

Hahah @Eorthisio , whats with all the cantonese spellings???

I only like the cha siu bao for the cha siu. The bao is useless filler. 

 

Xiaolong baos are good too.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
