My local noodle shop makes the most amazing dimmys - his dad was the legendary dimmy maker at Sth Melb Market - and they are massive and almost hexagonal in shape, two is more than enough for a meal !

Which one is this Bellarine?

I'm with you on this one Lily, although I have to say that I'd prefer the rounded bottom than the top.

Apocalypse, while you are clearly a smart and wonderful person who knows which end of a dim sim faces up, I might have to take you to task about your allegation that the rounded bottom of the dim sim is best saved till last. Any dim sim connoisseur knows that saving the pointy folded end with the crispy bits till last is the only real way to savour a good dimmy :laughing:

Daviescr, I always thought you were a bit dodgy, now I know why, but your wife! I thought she'd be one of the good guys, tell her I'm disappointed :hysteria:

Well yes, clearly the smartest people (shall we call them geniuses) can identify the rounded section as the bottom. :D
Are we talking deep-fried here, as I probably would take the crispy folded end. But if we are talking about boiled dim sims, than the rounded end would become my first choice.

Dearest Genius

Yes, I concur. You are quite right, I should have specified that I was talking about fried dim sims and I agree wholeheartedly with your sentiments.

You are a lovely person. I really like that shirt you're wearing it matches your eyes. You're very clever. I like you.

Lily (also a Genius) :D

No question about it. It's the round end. The top is the best part to eat though.
