Dim sum, a cornerstone of Guangdong’s culinary heritage, is known for its variety, communal experience, and rich history. However, non-Chinese diners often face challenges like unfamiliar dishes, complex menus, and a lack of customization, limiting their ability to fully immerse in this cherished tradition.
Our project, Dim Some More, combines traditional dim sum culture with modern technology to create an innovative, user-friendly dining experience. By embedding touchscreens into dining tables, diners can browse a visually dense menu with images and descriptions, receive personalized recommendations based on preferences, and even engage in interactive games while waiting.
Through user-centric research and iterative testing, we discovered that simplicity, accessibility, and inclusivity were key to addressing the needs of diverse diners. The result is a seamless integration of technology and tradition, making dim sum dining intuitive, engaging, and culturally enriching for all.
