One bowl with two pieces (一盅兩件), a slang has long been existing in the dictionary of Hong Kong tea culture. In the past, tea was not offered in a teapot present-day but a bowl in Cantonese restaurant. Dim Sums were not bite-sized. Instead, quite a number of them were simply big buns that two pieces of them easily fill up one's stomach. The legendary "雞球大包" (Lit. Chicken Ball Big Bun, meaning a Bun with chicken filling.) serves as an excellent example here. This saying, however, is rendered unrealistic under the heavy influence of "bite-sized trend".
