Dim Sum=Yummmmmmm; have you gone for dim sum?

Oh gosh, I haven't been in many years. Now I want to go. I love the little bitty spring rolls snipped in half with scissors and squirted with sauce. Yum Yum Yum.

I'll try pretty much everything that goes by.

I was thinking last week how longs it been. Curses on you, I'll be craving it now

Not really dim sum per se, but when we go to Din Tai Fung, my favorite is pork and shrimp shumai. Yum!

Pork buns! Yum. My parents used to take us to Dim Sum, I loved it. My husband does not like it, I don't know why. I'm going to have to grab my kids and go one day. My mouth is watering.

We go several times a month. Here in the east valley of Phoenix, we have three good ones nearby. Shumai and sticky rice are two of our favorites. The custard tarts for dessert are great especially if they are warm. Also love the calamari. I use to work in Singapore and we went to dim sum every Saturday. I've been lucky to try it all over the world.

WE've done Dim Sum when we've gone to San Franscisco and NYC. Both were excellent.

Because DH has an allergy to mushrooms and other fungi, as well as to many aging processes, eating with him at any Asian style restaurant is always nerve wracking. He did some research, though, and found a place in San Fran that had a reputation for being safe for people with allergies. We really enjoyed it.

I took DD and some friends to a Dim Sum place in Chinatown in NYC. We got there before the usual dinner time and were just a bit hesitant because there was no one else there. The staff gave us there full attention, though, and by the time we left, they had a line out the door.

We've been to one place in the Atlanta suburbs, but it was so hard to understand the servers I couldn't relax enough to enjoy the meal. I just knew DH was going to get ahold of something, but he didn't.

Oh, we enjoyed the steamed buns so much, I came home and learned how to make them. I already do pulled pork every so often for BBQ and carnets, so I just set some aside before I added any of the seasoning or sauces and I used it for the buns' filings. I think I used a homemade hoisin sauce on it. I couldn't believe how easy it was to make the dough and to wrap the buns. Next time, I need to add more sauce, though; they were not as juicy as I would have liked.

We go twice a month for Dim Sum.  Some of the things we love:

Roast Duck noodle soup (thin noodles) or just an order of roast duck
turnip cake
steamed pork buns
steamed rice noodles filled with pork
spare ribs
sticky rice
chinese broccoli with oyster sauce

I'm allergic to shellfish so we have to be careful.
