I remember eating here quite a few years back with @mr.thiel and am pleasantly surprised to see how popular this humble shop has become; Timeout rates this #27 of the top 50 restaurants in Melbourne.

Especially the fried ones as the skin is smooth and thin, like those used for gyozas. So delicious! #dumplings #dumplingdreams

12 pieces and they are the most delicious options available. The fish dumplings are too blend but the pork fillings inside here is very tasty!

Oh well, the pancake is mini buns aka our fries golden buns serving alongside the chili crab. This is one super dish u won't want to miss. $29.80 but the pomfret is so fresh and the dark sauce is totally yum! They cooked it with whole garlic and seasoned soy bean. Very homey!

My first time trying pan fried mackerel fish paste dumplings. It tasted fresh and had no hint of the usual mackerel fishiness. Way too many for 1 person though.
