  The food is pretty damn good. I was recommended to come here by a few people and it wasn't a disappointment. It's not Chinese food that has been changed to fit a western palate, it's pretty darn authentic. The service is good and you are constantly topped up with gratis tea. It's quite simple in regards to ordering too. They give you a slip of paper and you just mark what you want and the quantity. The only trouble is ordering too much!

  What to try? Of course the dumplings!! Made in house, comes either pan fried, steamed or boiled. If you're new to dumplings, I'd recommend the pan fried option (if diet is not a concern for you too haha). The traditional way is to dip it in the black vinegar sauce but nowadays you can dip it in any sauce you like. If you like hot chili sauce, go for it! It's awesome that they also have the chefs making the dough and wrapping the dumplings right in front of the patrons because you can be rest assured that the dumplings are indeed freshly made at the restaurant. I would have loved if there was more juice in the dumpling when you bite into it, that the juice is gushing out, but I overall liked the dumplings we ordered! Last tip? To avoid burning yourself or making a mess with squirting juice everywhere the moment you bite into the dumplings, make sure you take a small bite of the dumpling skin to open a hole and you can suck out the pork juice out from the dumpling first before you take another bite of the dumpling. Takes quite the practice to master this when you want to experience the dumpling the right way!

  Not impressed! Just got back from Asia 2 weeks ago, looking for dumplings as I was craving them and can't say I was at all impressed. The dumpling were filled with more chives then pork, which tasted gross. Couldn't even get through 6 before I felt turned off. We also ordered rice which was dry and tasteless. Only thing that was good, was that the food came fast.

  Great soup selection. Great dumplings fresh and frozen. Watch the ladies prep infront of you while you eat. This place has a bustling feel that makes you comfortable. And hey they have white waiters so you don't lose your order in translation.
