Those seeking a traditional handmade dumpling fix head along Enmore Road in Newtown to find Chinese Dumpling Master. Expect to find grapes and leaves hanging from the ceiling at this intimate little diner, along with red and black wall art and cosy table settings; as guests ponder a concise menu of pan-fried and steamed dumplings, along with roast duck pancakes, noodle dishes and steaming bowls of soup. Authentic North-western Chinese fare is what you’ll find on the plate, perhaps starting with prawn dumplings and dipping sauce, or chicken, onion and coriander; then wrap your hands around a BBQ pork bun with a cucumber salad on the side.
