There isn't much to say about Dim and Den Sum that hasn't already been said. They brought food trucks to Cleveland and us Clevelanders are helping to make it a viable business going forward. If you've never had "street snacks" as Chris, the owner likes to refer to them, you may wonder how the hell can food that comes off a truck be so good? Well I don't have the answer to that question other than that Chris is crazy talented. He puts plenty of work into the food long before it gets handed to you out of the truck. I've had a number of items over the past year that he has been operating and I'll touch on some of my favorites that are frequently offered.
PBLT - Pork, Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato - If you are a fan of pork, you are bound to fall in love. Pork, extra pork in the form of bacon, lettuce, tomato and my personal favorite Sriracha Mayo. Great combination on fresh bread. One word description: Foodgasm
Steamed Buns are a new edition that I've recently tried and also a great choice. I forget exactly the combination but I've seen both pork and chicken varieties with cilantro slaw and cucumbers. Steamed buns are not something you find often in Cleveland and so I jump at the chance any time I can.
The Hawaiian Burger was the last item I've had recently and burgers aren't something I typically get that excited for. I try not to eat red meat very frequently and if I do I want it to be a nicely marbled bone-in ribeye. So the fact that this burger turned out so good made it well worth my red meat allowance. Had a nice balance of sweetness from the pineapple, smokiness from the bacon and BBQ aoili and spice from seasoning of the meat. Would order again without any problem.
They also cater and while I have not yet had any of the food they have catered I have experienced Chris's cooking outside of Dim and Den Sum at various charity events and its a home run every time.
In the spirit of full disclosure I am friends with Chris the proprietor of Dim and Den Sum but that came about through his business rather than knowing him previous to it. I always support good food and it would only hurt my credibility to endorse anything less than excellent.
