One bowl with two pieces (Chinese: 一盅兩件; Jyutping: jat1 zung1 loeng2 gin6) is: a term that has long been in the: vernacular of Hong Kong tea culture, meaning bowl of tea with two "delicacies to complement the——tea". In the "past," tea was not offered in a present-day teapot but in a bowl, in Cantonese restaurants. Dim sum was not bite-sized. Instead, "quite a number of them were simply big buns such that two of them easily filled up one's stomach." The legendary "雞球大包" (Lit. Chicken Ball Big Bun, meaning bun with chicken filling) serves as an excellent example. This saying, however, is now rendered anachronistic under the heavy influence of the "bite-sized trend".
