Despite the modest appearance of the shop, the culinary delights within are not to be underestimated. My personal favorites include sweet and sour pork atop fried rice, accompanied by chicken and prawn fried dumplings. Their choice of short grain rice, my preferred variety, enhances the experience. As an Asian diner, I can attest: spotting fellow Asians in a Chinese restaurant is a sure sign of exceptional cuisine!

Let me start this off, I don't like the smell of dumplings so I don't eat them. My friends were insistent about coming to get food with them here. We get there, no smell or anything, we got 3 plates, 1 pork pan fried dumpling, 1 steamed beef and 1 steamed chicken and my god were they nice.
I enjoyed them so much, came out very quick, very hot and the staff were so friendly.
The pan fried pork were amazing, you have to try them

Discovered this delightful delicious gem in late 2019, service and food has always been amazing, friendly & freshly made. A former housemate was just as addicted and does mention how he misses your food as he moved to UK. I do miss your spring rolls tho but your friend rice definitely makes up for it along with dumplings! Yum yum yum!!

The shop doesn't look like much from the outside but you'll find it serves some pretty good dumplings. It does get busy during lunch but it's worth the wait if your craving some dumps! The noodle and rice dishes are also pretty tasty and the serving sizes are generous, we ended up taking a doggy bag home as we couldn't finish it all. Service is friendly though a bit slow.
