The Peninsula Beverly Hills was already offering dim sum courtesy of Hong Kong native Jimmy Chiu, including steamed shrimp dumplings, Peking duck potstickers and fried seafood rolls. Now Executive Chef James Overbaugh and Executive Pastry Chef Miguel Torres have added a sweet element with four styles of chocolate dim sum costing $11. Two delicate dumplings are loaded with dark chocolate, the other duo filled with white chocolate and accented with citrus-cream cheese. Rounding out the plate: green tea ice cream and a trio of dipping sauces – passion fruit, orange-raspberry and ginger-caramel.
