I've been coming to Sammi & Soupe for years (various locations) & have always ordered the shrimp dumplings, assuming they contained only seafood. As a Muslim, I don't consume non-halal beef. Yesterday, for the first time, I visited with a friend who wears a hijab, & the waitress informed us that the shrimp dumplings are served in a beef broth prior to ordering.

I was surprised because I had never been told this during all my previous visits. It made me wonder if this information was only mentioned because my friend visibly appeared Muslim. Regardless, I believe this should be clearly indicated on the menu for everyone.

Knowing what's in the broth is important not only for people with religious dietary restrictions, but also for those with allergies, food sensitivities, or other dietary preferences. A simple note on the menu stating that the soup contains beef broth would help customers make informed choices & avoid situations like mine.

I've always enjoyed eating here, which is why I hope this feedback is taken as a suggestion to improve transparency for all customers.

Clean spot, not too busy when I was there. I had the spicy pork dumplings which were not very spicy & the pork & shrimp dumplings those were my fave. Super tasty & juicy. I also tried the beef pan fried crispy dumplings. They were OK

This new location that opened with the Royalmount is bright, minimalistic & clean, & offers a small terrasse area for outdoor dining.

The soup dumplings are handmade, each with the dough rolled out thin & pleated beautifully. The chicken & mushroom soup dumpling was surprisingly juicy, tender, & wonderfully umami.
The pan-fried dumplings had a nice crispy skirt, but I believe the skirt is made of corn starch as it had a slight chewiness that sticks to the teeth. A flour-based slurry would provide a crispier crunch, but this is a question of personal taste. The beef curry dumpling was flavorful, but filling was on the dry side.

It is also worth noting that prices are slightly higher at this location than others.

The bathrooms were clean, however toilet paper was not provided. Instead, a stack of napkin papers were placed on top of the toilet paper holder which feels both unsanitary & highly uncomfortable to use.
