Popular Sacramento dim sum eatery launches brunch options for its Land Park location

Restaurateur Danni Kim wanted to try something different. Four years ago, Kim opened Hidden Dumpling House in Elk Grove, which, today, stands out for its gluten-free dishes. The business opened a number of locations across Sacramento and became a local favorite dim sum spot. But Kim was craving something new. She wanted to sink her teeth into a new adventure: to open an American-style brunch restaurant. “Nobody said a Chinese owner cannot do brunch,” Kim said. “It’s something I always wanted to do.” Kim has created The Morning After, a breakfast and brunch only menu at Hidden Dumpling House’s Land Park location at 3005 Freeport Blvd. The Morning After was originally a pop-up at the Land Park restaurant. It launched the brunch menu on Nov. 1 and Kim hired a whole new kitchen staff just for the venture. Each dish is focused on the highest and purest quality ingredients, Kim said. For example, the restaurant’s maple syrup is pure maple, rather than a corn syrup substitute. The Morning After’s menu is simple. There’s a traditional two-pancake breakfast, with butter and homemade berry compote, a side of fresh fruit and maple syrup. Other items include biscuits and gravy, chicken and waffles,

After student's father detained, Sac City Unified presses city for ICE alerts

Sacramento City Unified School District leaders said Tuesday the father of an Earl Warren Elementary student was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement the day before, a few blocks from the school. At a news conference, board members urged Sacramento police to alert the district when verified ICE activity occurs near schools. The call came as the district pressed for better coordination after ICE agents in late October were spotted near Ethel Phillips Elementary, causing concern among students and families during after school pickup. “We can prepare for what happens on our campuses. Unfortunately, we cannot control what happens on the streets surrounding them,” school board member Jasjit Singh said Tuesday. “We need timely, credible information. We need direct radio communication between our school safety team and the police department, and we need city sanctuary policies that place students and families at the forefront and are centered around how to prepare and how to respond.” According to Singh, the district learned about the detention through the school, after the principal was informed that the student’s father had been detained. The detention took place near the 65th Street, by St. Mary Cemetery, Singh said. The detention came three days after
