There are over a dozen types of dumplings to choose from which include two vegan friendly dumpling options, which I very much appreciate :). A steamer of 12 dumplings will set you back $6-7, which is not a bad price. The dough had a good chew, but the bottoms were slightly soggy, so a few unravelled when they were picked up unfortunately. Other than that, the flavour was very good. Not overly salty nor bland; a perfect balance that reminded me a lot of dumplings I had back in northern China. \n\nWe also tried their corn bread which was unfortunately not very tasty. The texture was lumpy and dry. I would've much rather have had a man tau. Also a miss was their hot sauce. Usually a little hot sauce helps bring out the flavour of the dumplings, but their hot sauce is bitter and doesn't compliment the dumplings at all. \n\nService was also a little slow. It was about a 15 minute wait for our first dish after we placed our order. I also overheard another customer cancelling an order because it took too long to come, which is never a good thing. But, like the majority of authentic Chinese restaurants, great all around service is never a priority, so this really doesn't come as a surprise. \n\nMy boyfriend had their beef roll which he said good flavour, but it was lacking veggies/herbs, like scallions and cucumbers, that give a beef roll that crunch."^^ .
