Nestled along a quiet stretch of Highway 128, the 132-year-old general store has been a gourmet pit stop for meandering cyclists, curious tourists and vineyard workers for decades. Its weathered plank walls, well-worn wood floors and shady front porch have graced countless Instagram feeds.<\/p>\n<p>In early June, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sonomamag.com\/healdsburgs-jimtown-store-reopens-with-a-fresh-flavor-and-familiar-charm\/\">Wood debuted Jimtown &amp; Then Sum<\/a>, merging her longtime dim sum catering business with the Jimtown legacy. Fans of her handmade dumplings eagerly anticipated shu mai, potstickers and bao at the new location.<\/p>\n<p>But when the doors opened, there was no dim sum at Jimtown &amp; Then Sum.<\/p>\n<p>The daily process of folding, filling and steaming dumplings proved too demanding in the early days of operation.
