Anyone know of a place where I can try some good Dim Sum?

Thanks,

Steve

Jade Palace, on Herr Lane south of Westport Road at the southern end of the newly renovated Westport Village is really the <i>only</i> place for dim sum, Steve. They do it well, with carts on weekends.

Oriental House has a few dim sum items on the Chinese menu, but it's a limited selection. Go to Jade Palace ... it's a fun experience, good enough to draw heavy support from Louisville's Chinese community.

DIM SUM=TAPAS in my book...Dim sum was so mid 90's, Tapas are HOT, Hot, Hot. Not literally of course, but Spanish influenced cuisine is.

Asiatique has an awesome bar menu(and slick, modern vibe) that you may be looking for, for a more than reasonable tariff

Also, Run don't walk to Mojito's and explore the menu...

That should more than fulfill your quest for "small bites"

With all respect, I would say that both dim sum and tapas are classics that transcend short-term trends. I love 'em both, but if I'm in a mood for authentic dim sum, I'm not going to be interested in tapas. Or, of course, vice versa. ;)
