A delicious handmade dumpling restaurant opens in Chinatown, Birmingham

Dumplings have become more popular across the UK than chicken wings and Brummies are in for a treat because a new restaurant has opened in Birmingham that serves only dumplings.

Earlier this year, DesignMyNight’s City Survey: The Affordability Edition revealed that 53% of the UK favoured dumplings over chicken wings and Birmingham is home to several amazing Chinese restaurants that serve great dumplings.

And, now a new player has enterred the ring and it is yet to be seen if it will be able to dethrone the great dumpling restaurants of Birmingham.

Located on Bromsgrove Street and attached to Great Food Everyday restaurant at Unit 2A below Latitude Apartments in Chinatown, Dumpling House opened this week. The restaurant is open from 11.30am to 10.30pm everyday except Tuesday.

The restaurant specialises in dumplings and offer a wide range of handmade ones, as well as pan fried dumplings, porridge and cold appetizers - making it perfect for “girl dinner”. Girl dinner is a social media trend focussing on small portion meals consisting of snacks, side dishes, for women.

Dumpling House is run by the same team as Great Food Everyday restaurant - who were kind enough to feed us at 10pm on a Friday night despite being close to their closing time. The latter is known for their sizzlers but have a much-wider venue than their next door neighbour.

Dumpling House’s handmade menu shows options like pork and pickled cabbage; pork and celery; chives and egg; eggs, chives and shrimp, pork and cabbage; and more. You can also try out Asian porridge or Congee with seasonal prawn, preserved egg and lean meat and more.
