I have been a frequenter of the Spadina Dumpling joints for a long time, but this weekend I tried out Dumpling house on Gerrard and I was impressed by the price and the size of the dumplings!
I liked that their pan-fried pork and chives were larger and more robust (they didn't reserve the size just for beef ones, better value). They were delicious and my Chinese friend and I agreed that they were authentic, like the kind we had in Asia when we lived there. However, even better was the pork and celery steamed dumplings where you could actually taste the flavour of the celery!
No-nonsense, reasonably priced dumplings and Chinese food is hard to come by in the East, but this spot is DEFINITELY worth checking out. They are open pretty late too so I plan on picking some up for a snack tonight too.
