Food is good. The (Xiao lung Bao) pork dumplings were juicy and flavorful better than the 88 Bao Bao in Dublin. Beef rolls is good and the pan fried bao is juicy… could use a little less uncooked oil brushing the unfried part of the bao … I guess they have to keep the black sesame in place.
Small Chinese joint prefect for small groups. Friendly on the wallet compared to Ding Tai Fung and the like. Order first places are a bit weird for me because you tip up front and then receive service. Wasn’t too impressed by the cucumber or the soup dumplings although, I’ll very much order them again. The popcorn chicken was quite good. It reminded me of the flavors in Taiwan street markets. Still, not going to blow your mind. Place was quite tiny, so felt a bit bad taking...
Aside from their best XLB, the popcorn chicken is the best in the area. It’s well balanced with its seasoning - not too salty or greasy, the batter doesn’t overpower the chicken, and the meat is so juicy and soft. I like their potstickers and their fried egg with chives pancake - excellent. Their prices are affordable and the food they serve is crafted well.
