Love their dumplings!
I was so excited to order from here. After a cross country flight I was starved and love dumplings. I decided to order from... here. This is what my "pan fried " chicken dumplings look like. Burnt on one side, soggy on the other. So disappointed. Read more
2.5 stars. I grabbed the order as soon as it left the kitchen and headed straight home. the order included soup dumplings, pan... fried fish dumplings, a pork slider, and wood ear mushrooms. I enjoyed the soup dumplings the most. juicy and flavorful. Thepork belly slider was also alright, but it ate too mushy for me. It needed some crunch, either from the skin or from otheringredients. The wood ear mushrooms were okay. The biggest disappointment were the pan-fried dumplings. They were sealed inan airtight container, guaranteeing that any crunch that they acquired during their cooking process would be completely gone,despite how quickly I arrived home. The result was an oily, unpleasant to eat situation. Overall, despite the flaws in theexperience, I can't help but think that there is potential here if they are open to reflecting upon the constructive criticismthat they get, and they reconsider their packaging for their fried dumplings.
