missdianeDebbie (birth name Ching) who works for the business office popped in to see my work neighbors and popped into my office. She spotted my dim sum calendar and asked about it, wherein I told her that dim sum (basically any form of yummy dumpling, especially steamed) is my favorite food EVER. She was practically giddy and told me that we should go for dim sum sometime. Well HELL YEAH. No objection here. She's originally from Hong Kong and said how in Hong Kong, people will make an all day thing of it, bringing a newspaper and ordering dumplings over several hours.
...I am SO retiring to Hong Kong if I win the lottery...
I told her that another Chinese food that I adore is congee. She was stunned that uber white girl from Ohio knew all these dishes. I told her that growing up in podunk Marion, Ohio, friends would ask where to go eat when they were going to fancier Columbus, Ohio. I also told her that out of college when I was working retail management, I got my first introduction to dim sum at a restaurant across the street from my workplace.
She was also surprised that I'm all about the plaza with the H-Mart and eat Korean food too. Hey, I don't claim to be any sort of Asian food expert but I do put myself out there a bit. I feel sorry for people who don't try new things (exceptions for people with allergies, obviously).
