Very vibey spot. It’s fast and they’re really nice! The dumplings are fine. The green onion pancake was good! The boiled and pan fried dumplings were better than steamed for sure. Skip the steamed pork dumplings. They were quite not good. They have good vegetarian options.
Lovely lil restaurant with vegetarian and non-vegetarian dumplings + sides!! Absolutely cozy inside. Complimentary jasmine tea. Tons of booth seating. You can see them fold the dumplings live. I thought it was a cozy, family vibe. Super warm ❣️ Dumplings themselves were good, not great, partially for me lacking some flavour on the fillings. Chive pancakes were good. There’s a ton of soya, siracha, chili oil, vinegar, etc on the table to make your sauce. My favourite were the pan fried pork dumplings, or the vegetarian steamed. Portions are pretty huge!! This spot will run you ~$15-20 pp. I regret not trying the BBQ pork bun!
Restaurant chinois mentionné par le Michelin. soyons franc, l'authenticité est absolue , nous avons habité 4 ans en chine et ici clairement .... on se croirait en Chine. La nourriture est sincèrement bonne sans être excellente et le prix est supérieur à la moyenne. Le service est tres chinois. Allez y pour déjeuner, vous ne serez pas déçu
Fort des avis du site, nous avons fait escale dans ce restaurant. Nous avons été installés au fond de la salle entre la cuisine et les toilettes, sur une table poisseuse. Le thé offert, la cuisine est généreuse mais sommes toute assez insipide. Les raviolis faits maison sont congelés et plein d’eau une fois réchauffés. Le service est moyen. Il y a certainement mieux dans le quartier chinois.
