I'm sure a few years ago the SMM Dim Sim people must have become a bit entrepreneurial and looked to offer (and perhaps deliver) their wares outside of the South Melbourne Market because they started popping up in all different places. I know they were being sold in places near Swinburne in Hawthorn and I've seen them at quite a few other, out of the way locations as well.

And the overseasoning has probably escaped me as I douse them in so much chilli sauce and soy, a little extra salt is not noticeable, same with the pepper ;-)<br/><br/>Hi clownfishdesign - ahh, I checked out your <a HREF="http://clownfishdesign.livejournal.com/" REL="nofollow">post</a> about your delivery of dimmies. I too would be happy to receive such a gift over the waters.<br/><br/>Hey kieraan - ahh, I've actually spied that shop and sign, but have yet to venture in to test their claim. The Queen Vic is my local market too, so its not a stretch to give them a try out. Thanks for the tip! Hey elliot - yes, the are gigantic and piping hot.
