Although experiences can occasionally vary, the overwhelming majority of visitors appreciate the fast service, fair pricing, and the memorable taste of items like the curry beef or pork and coriander dumplings, solidifying its reputation as a must-visit spot for dumpling enthusiasts.

Un plateau « dégustation » serait le bienvenu pour découvrir plusieurs saveurs en même temps.
Aussi, la possibilité de combiner des modes de cuisson (bouilli, grillé ou vapeurs) serait super.
Enfin un menu pour plusieurs serait apprécié.
Mais définitivement, parmi les meilleurs dim-sun en ville!

I had an excellent experience with a take out order the first time we went there & the dumplings were delicious. The next time was not so great, we ordered online & got a confirmation with an order number & when we got there (it was a 15 minutes drive for us) they told us that they didn't receive our order & that we would have to wait 30 minutes to get our food, even if we showed them the confirmation on our phone. Very disappointed with their service, in these circumstances we would have expected them to correct this mistake & prioritize our order. Will not go back again.
