Dumpling Era 思乡水饺

“Home made right in front of you, great fillings, good prices.”

Two Sticks & Tea★★★

It’s very quiet and you won’t have problems getting a seat. The food from my perspective is so so. It’s probably up a few notches if you aren’t vegetarian. There’s only one vegetarian dumpling. I ain’t complaining - just saying so. They serve it boiled. If you want to pan fry it it’s less pieces. Their egg scallion pancake is interesting. It’s pan fried but sweet. I’ve never had a sweet scallion pancake before. The highlight is probably their chili sauce which looks homemade and is spicy. The meal reminds me I only come here every few years and likely won’t be back.

You know a Chinese place is gonna be good if they serve you hot tea without asking. Zha zhiang mein was very good, on the sweeter side. 雪菜肉絲湯麵 had super fresh mustard greens, and has made it to the top 5 of my list for this dish. I always have this dish everywhere as a baseline. Super good! Staff was friendly to baby too. ☺️

Good food; hand pulled and knife cut 手扯面 刀削面 noodle are not common and very impressive to have it - they are order to made fresh. It’s a bit strange that they won’t allow me to eat here even though I arrived way before closing time (I arrive 2:20 and they close 3:00) … one star off from that

Very tasty home style Northern Chinese food (I think Hebei region cuisine?). Everything is simple but tasty and well executed. They also make their own dumplings in house, fresh and tasty! The spicy crispy tofu is genuinely crispy. The pieces didn't get soggy at all over the course of the meal, which I have experienced at other places. They were nice and golden with a spicy kick. The tomato and egg noodle soup was really flavorful. I didn't expect something so simple to have so much flavor. They make their own noodles, which were nice and thick with a delightfully chewy texture. I had fun chew
