| - I'm by no means a dumpling expert, not even knowledgeable really. Still the dumpling bar had been set fairly high: the only time I had had the dish before, a Chinese friend had made them in front of me, including the broth and filling. Needless to say: delicious!
I was pretty interested in trying their steamed dumplings, but had never seen them fried before. So we settled for pork and leek, one steamed plate and one fried. The fried plate doesn't deserve the heat it gets here: the menu does say "pan-fried", so yes, one side is crisp and the other is a regular, cooked dumpling. The dumplings almost burst with filling, which is very tasty and piping hot! We seemed to have come on a good night: our waitress was lovely and attentive. The seaweed salad was alright, but the portion was generous. Even though the prices are low, it's worth saying that one plate might be enough, even for me - and in any case I'm not sure they do doggy bags. As it's been mentioned elsewhere: cash only folks!
