Sunday roast is a meal in the UK, served on Sundays. Originally, it’s the meal served after church on Sunday.
澳大利亚的“点心”小吃是在1942年出现的。当时,被称为“点心之父”的中澳商人陈荣享意识到,在19世纪的淘金热期间,许多来澳大利亚工作的中国老人都没有工作。陈荣享发现中式小吃,尤其是烧麦,在澳大利亚非常受欢迎。他想,如果自己大量生产烧麦,让这些同胞去售卖,这样不就解决了他们的生存问题吗?为了让产品更快打入本土市场,他把外国人很难念的“烧麦”换成了熟悉的“点心(dim sim)”。从此,点心成为澳大利亚人口耳相传的美味小吃。
