Dim Sum

Over six hours (not two, Ming) after Ming took Kyle and I to Dim Sum in St. Paul, and my stomach is finally starting to calm down. I came home, got on my bike to do a few hill laps, went about half a block and a grinding stomach cramp nearly took me down in the middle of the street. Many Tums later, the twisting in my gut is settling down a bit. I suspect there's something in one of the dishes I should not be eating. I've never had anything I've eaten keep me off my bike before, and a Chipotle burrito with red sauce is a normal mid-ride lunch for me. Don't think I'll ever be doing that before or during a ride again. At least I'm prepared in the future.

(But thank you for lunch, Ming and Julie [and Logan]). I appreciate getting introduced to someplace new even if it had a bad side effect.

Dim Sum is an acquired taste. We should do it again next week.

Must have been the non-carrot carrot cake.

Did you ride through the cramps, or did it bring the ride to an abrupt end? This might have been good practice for if you get a bad piece of pie on RAGBRAI.

Where did you go? Our fav dim sum is Jun Bo in richfield...Yum!

I'm guessing you (and i) won't be served dim sum in IA.

Dimm Sum was at Mai Village in St. Paul.

Based on my multiple trips through Iowa, I don't think it likely that you'll see much in the way of Dim Sum. I did have excelllent grilled emu with a plum sauce in the Quad Cities once though...
