![]() The rolled noodles were a late comer to our lunch.It was tasty, and I hadn't seen one before. The dumpling that was in a green-wrap was pretty interesting.Dim Sum is like visiting your Aunt that lives in Kansas: she's fun to hang out with a couple times per year not once-a-week. I'll be happy to not going to Dim Sum for a while. Luncher: AdamLunch: Family Style - $10.00ĭim Sum. It was good, but not as flavorful as the Beef & Cilantro Roll at Jade Garden. The Shrimp & Scallop Dumplings were the best I've had with flavorful scallops mixed throughout.
