Food in Hong Kong is primarily based on [[Cantonese cuisine]], despite the territory's exposure to foreign influences and its residents' varied origins. Rice is the staple food, and is usually served plain with other dishes.<ref name="LongHKFood">{{harvnb|Long|2015|p=271}}.</ref> Freshness of ingredients is emphasised. Poultry and seafood are commonly sold live at [[wet market]]s, and ingredients are used as quickly as possible when still fresh.<ref>{{harvnb|Curry|Hanstedt|2014|pp=9–12}}.</ref> There are up to five daily meals: breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, and ''[[siu yeh]]''.<ref>{{harvnb|Long|2015|p=272}}.</ref> [[Dim sum]], as part of ''[[yum cha]]'' (brunch), is a dining-out tradition with family and friends. Dishes include [[congee]], ''[[cha siu bao]]'', ''[[siu yuk]]'', [[egg tart]]s, and [[mango pudding]]. Local versions of Western food are served at ''[[cha chaan teng]]'' (Hong Kong-style cafes). Common ''cha chaan teng'' menu items include macaroni in soup, deep-fried French toast, and [[Hong Kong-style milk tea]].<ref name="LongHKFood" />
