kwokpot Posted August 30, 2021 #952 Share Posted August 30, 2021 3 hours ago, IntrepidFromDC said: As I said, bao (and all dim sum) is popular in DC (DC does have a Chinatown and certainly has a large Chinese population). My next door neighbors are Han and owners of a Salesforce consulting firm. DC has a lot of Dim Sum places, some more traditional than others, some that include the sandwich-style "bready" bao, some that are more dumpling-centric. I much prefer the latter. Peking Duck is also served with bao at some of the Hong Kong and fusion Chinese restaurants, but all the traditional Chinese restaurants use the Mandarin crepes, similar to what I experienced in Shanghai and Beijing: I'm first generation Chinese American born in New York City who learned how to use chopsticks before a fork.(My screen name is a play on part of my Middle name, KWOK means Country in Cantonese) My only purpose in bringing up the subject is your description of the bao seemed strange and implied that it was inauthentic. Even your follow-up implied that. The ingredients to make it are all the same, it's just used differently. That Chinese steamed buns have become a trendy food item much like ramen/noodles and rice bowls have doesn't make the origins of the trend inauthentic. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your mother remembers him, she’s got a good memory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 30, 2021 Author #958 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I came in right at showtime. 4 people were already in line for the next show. It’s weird. Im on a couch that probably holds 25 people and there are only 4 of us. This is how people think it’s more crowded than it is sometimes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure it’s been three years and I grew my hair out but it didn’t work. She blew this air horn that’s right by me and banged that big gong. Do we get to see the hair?!

I seriously made ribeye steak for the family for dinner, I am drinking a Harder seltzer AND I just heard NYNY in Grand Central. As far as I’m concerned we never disembarked. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted August 30, 2021 Author #964 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I counted about 65 people in line for the next show. There’s also a line outside of the piano bar. I’m guessing it’s full and as people come out they let more people in. Looked like about 30 people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted August 30, 2021 Author #974 Share Posted August 30, 2021 The guy next to me. I can see out of my peripheral vision. When he laughs he snorts. And every time he laughs he looks at me. I’m not laughing by the way even if it’s funny because I know this guy is looking to see if I’m laughing. And he’s picking his nose. This is the kind of guy that’s going to be pushing that buffet door button before me. 1 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
