I'm always in the mood for dumplings. We originally wanted to try another place but we passed by this place first so we tried it. It was packed even when it was only 5:30pm. The place was not that big and the tables were very cramped together. We got a table right away but then the people afterwards had to wait. The service was very quick as they want a quick turn around to free up the tables. Lots of servers running around and the boss was there so if any of them had a moment of freedom, she will tell them what to do.
We ordered these dishes:
- hot & sour soup - decent authentic compared to the other ones I had, not too spicy, lots of sesame oil
- pan-fried pork and chives dumplings - very hot and crispy on the bottom of the dumpling. The dumplings are actually not sealed so there is opening. Very tasty, didn't need to add soy sauce at all
- steamed pork and cabbage dumplings - freshly steamed, hot and juicy in the inside.
- green onion pancake - freshly made, very crispy and flaky
All the dishes were very good, The food came pretty quickly and price is cheap, portions are decent. They were really rushing to get you out. The moment our plate was empty, they took it away. I felt so pressured eating, like all eyes were watching me and I couldn't even finish my tea as they were cleaning up my table.
