Dragged along by my dumpling-obsessed friend, I stumbled upon and its eccentric, anything-goes genre of interior design. With tapestry along the walls and plastic vines hanging from the ceiling I couldn't really tell what the place was going for. Nevertheless, one thing was certain: we were here for the dumplings.

And boy were we satisfied. Opting for the pan-fried chinese cabbage and pork dumplings and the xiao long bao (steamed pork buns), we were genuinely impressed with the pan-fried dumplings. With their lightly crisped bottoms, these dumplings were perfectly fried, and with a fresh dose of Chinese vinegar, they were in danger of becoming nonexistent. The buns on the other hand were only decent for the asking price (around $10) but personally I would've preferred less bun and more juice to enhance the flavour and tenderness of the pork filling.



Overall, the service was quick and we soon learned a valuable lesson, stick to what the locals and Chinese traditionalists know best: you can never go wrong with boiled and pan-fried dumplings. The boiled dumplings seemed like more of an acquired taste for vinegar dousing enthusiasts whilst the pan-fried dumplings won out as a crowd favourite.

So if you are looking for good quality dumplings at a cheap and affordable price, don't miss out on a venture to the Chinatown side of Sydney to enjoy a quick-fire way in satisfying those after-hours cravings. You honestly can't go wrong when you follow lines of hungry businessmen post-work looking for a highly sought after dinner.

Rating: three and a half teapot refills out of five.
