| - Okay, I love this place. Actually, ever since I came to eat here, I've been dreaming about coming back.. so good. I came here with two friends and we ordered a bunch of dishes to share. We started with hot & sour soup.. it comes in two sizes, regular and large. I thought the regular would be a single-person serving so that's why I ordered it. It actually is a huge bowl of soup, so I can't imagine how big the large is! We ended up having enough to split between three people, two servings each. The hot & sour here is also really good, broth has nice tartness and is not too spicy (my friend that doesn't like spicy food was able to eat it and enjoy it) and has all the standard ingredients plus tomato slices, which I thought was interesting.
Next, we ordered the sweet & sour crispy pork and the pan fried green onion cake. The sweet & sour crispy pork is SO GOOD. Just order it, okay? The onion cake is nice too, but pretty plain. It doesn't need to be more complex though; tasty just the way it is!
We then got four different kinds of dumpling, since that's what we came here for: steamed pork and leek, steamed pork and fennel, steamed vegetable and mushroom, and pan fried pork and chive. They were all amazing. My favourites were the fennel and veggie dumplings. The pan fried ones were great but I could have done without them because they tasted so heavy and oily after eating the steamed ones. We couldn't even finish everything, so I took the leftovers home with me and had them for lunch at work the next day and they were still amazing!
Can't wait to come back here, seriously.. yum.
