January 12, 2017 Tom’s Bao Bao

Leah and I met for lunch in Harvard Square to try out Tom’s Bao Bao. I love me some dumplings so I was in heaven. We walked in and spent a good ten minutes just staring awkwardly at the people behind the glass making the dumplings (and taking videos of them). All of the buns […]

April 29, 2016 Dumpling School at Dumpling Palace

I never really liked school – but dumpling school is something I can definitely wrap my head around. A few weeks ago I was invited to Dumpling Palace for a hands on dumpling making tutorial. The intimate event had us forming dumplings with the chef and eating what we made! Top left is Leah Palone, Marketing Director […]

March 29, 2016 Dumpling Palace

Leah and I decided to grab lunch at Dumpling Palace one afternoon. Located on Mass Ave, parking can be dicey at times – best to try and take public transportation there! The fun part about this place is that there’s a little window and you can look in on the chef making the dumplings by […]

December 18, 2015 Live Noodles

I’m a sucker for noodles and dumplings, so when Live Noodles came in right down the street, I was dying to try them out. They serve traditional hand pulled noodles with authentic soup. From their website: Lanzhou beef lamian, or Lanzhou beef hand-pulled noodle, is a type of Chinese noodle dish originated in Lanzhou, China, […]

March 11, 2015 Dumpling Daughter

Dumpling Daughter opened in November to rave reviews by the Globe. The restaurant is the brain child of Nadia Liu Spellman, Weston native and Babson College graduate. The restaurant is small, it only has about 30 seats – but they also do takeout! Bonus is that you can BYOB and they don’t charge you a […]

April 30, 2014 Patty Chen’s Dumpling Room

Patty Chen’s dumping room has taken over the space that was formerly Pu Pu Hot Pot (insert giggle here). Patty opened Pu Pu Hot Pot in 1993 with her parents, and she and her husband, Mark Shulman, re-branded to the dumpling room in 2013. The restaurant only has about 10 tables and a communal high […]

February 28, 2014 Beijing Noodle No. 9 at Caesar’s Palace

I was dying to try the hand stretched noodles here. The place was packed and we couldn’t get a reservation, so we just went and thought we would try our luck. We waited 20 minutes for a table – while hostesses walked around aimlessly and while tables sat dirty and empty. You just get the […]

March 30, 2013 Mei Mei Street Kitchen

Mei Mei Street Kitchen may be one of my favorite food trucks. Their dumplings made Boston Magazine’s Best Dumpling List. And in even better news, they are getting a brick and mortar location (see the blog post here). We are hoping that they are going in to the space that was formerly My Brothers Pizza, […]

March 26, 2013 Windsor Dum Sum

I had seen Boston Magazine’s Best Dumpling article, and decided to get a few friends together to go to the Windsor Dim Sum Cafe to try their dumplings. Located in Chinatown, on the second floor, this place is always jam packed. There are a few larger tables, so many times, they ask you if you […]
