Classic Cantonese morning tea – Lotus-flavored glutinous rice chicken

Overview

Every time I go for morning tea, I always order a piece of glutinous rice chicken. I like the faint fragrance of lotus leaves, mixed with slightly spicy chicken and mushrooms. After eating, I am covered in a thin sweat, and I sip the hot tea, which warms my body and mind!
