This restaurant in Calgary's Chinatown was highly recommended by a family member, and they were…read moreabsolutely right. We had been eating overly heavy dinners over the past few days, so we decided to be relatively gentle with our order this time. Here is a breakdown of what we tried: Xiao Long Bao (小籠包 - Soup Dumplings): This is my daughter's favorite, so we ordered two baskets for her. They were executed beautifully. They were well-steamed on a clean sheet, and thankfully, there was no grayish blood seeping out of the meat. The wrapper (麵 皮) was right on the spot--not too hard or soft, not too thick or thin, and it didn't have that rubbery "chewing gum" or mushy "play dough" texture you get at lesser places. The pork filling tasted clean with no funky pork smell. Very nice. Beef and Tendon Noodle Soup: This was just okay, but to be fair, I don't expect a flawless bowl of beef noodle soup from a restaurant that doesn't strictly specialize in it (especially at a Dim Sum-focused spot). The broth was a bit plain and served lukewarm. The tendon, however, was well-cooked and well-marinated with a pleasant taste; it was a bit on the firmer side, which didn't bother me. The noodles were on the softer, sparser side rather than dense and chewy. I personally prefer a firmer noodle, but again, I can't complain too much given the venue. Spicy Tofu and Preserved Egg (麻辣皮蛋豆腐): I really liked this dish. The tofu had a fantastic, fresh soy taste, the preserved egg was delicious, and the chili oil and soy sauce dressing was perfectly balanced. If you are wondering what these "black eggs" are and feel a bit hesitant or concerned about trying them, I highly recommend giving them a shot here. This dish will easily fix those concerns! Overall, it was a great meal. I will definitely return, and next time we have the appetite, I'll dive deeper into the dishes they truly specialize in.

It is located in the suburbs and a bit far from the actual Calgary Chinatown, but it came with ample parking and prices with the high quality food were simply unbeatable (Small: 5.95, Medium: 6.75, Large: 7.35 CAD). No carts, but dim sum is served all the way up to 3pm. We came just before 2pm and were seated immediately. The restaurant was huge and very easy-going at this particular time. We ordered the classics off a paper slip -- shrimp rice roll, siumai, har gow, turnip cake, ham sui gok, etc. -- and were blown away at the portion size which were on the larger end of the spectrum. They certainly do not skimp on the filling. For instance, the siumai and har gow contained very plumply-sized shrimp. Flavor was spot on as well. The hot tea was complimentary which is unusual from my parts. When we finished ordering, they even brought out a complimentary dessert which was a slightly sweet agar type thing. What a great end to a short and sweet visit to Calgary! We even had so much food to take back through airport security. The parents were much pleased with the leftovers.

We asked for the runny egg yolk bao bc thats my fav, took a while to come out and wasnt that runny. We ordered some soup noodle dish but they messed up and gave it to us dry so they gave us a bowl or broth. Overall everything was mid, nothing was super yummy, idr anything was bad tho.

Their main business is selling a few dozen varieties of handmade Chinese dumplings in frozen form for you to steam at home, and they range in price from $11-$15 for 50 pieces. That solitary table is for the dine in menu, which consists of mainly dumplings soups and Japanese gyozas served on Styrofoam. No sauces are provided, but the soups are ~$6, have 10 dumplings each, are thermonuclear hot, and are served with fresh choy. A fine choice for a quick dumpling fix, and a chance to preview a flavor before bringing home a bag of 50.

They put some magic in those things let me tell you! One of the best dumplings I have ever had. It's not your typical dumpling, it has a very nice gingery flavor that compliments the pork so so nicley. Must be the family recipe and I bet they keep it a secret! The other stuff is great to, they have ginger beef, rice noodles, mixed veg etc...Obviously at food vendor places like this it can be hit or miss, depending on how long the food has sat. But the flavour is always present, and I will never let that fact stop me! So next time you are at the farmers market come and try this place, the dumplings are a MUST. Check it out!

However, second day we thought getting a quick bite before we head over to the airport back to LA. But holy crap the service was rude as F. We first went in and the front desk lady took us to a window desk which was nice but she hesitated and give us another seat. We asked her so we can't sit at window seat? She responded "no" without given a reason. Guess what?! The next thing you notice she lets a nice looking Caucasian family sit at the window seat. Hey that's fine! but we are now trying to order some food now, but guess what? Waiter just ignores us and kept going to the window seat with his passionate services he was providing. While I was trying to ask for a tea... he didn't even ask what kind of tea and just throw me a random tea... I was furious cause this never happened in California at least not to me. He kept going to the window seat and ignoring us. So we just got up and left. 0 tips required to give in this restaurant.

The staff came across as very rude and at times dismissive. I'm not sure if it was due to miscommunication or the restaurant being busy, but it definitely impacted our experience. We were also given dirty utensils on more than one occasion, which was disappointing. As for the food, it was okay at best. The standouts were the peking duck and the salt & pepper squid, which were easily my favorite dishes of the meal. Everything else was fairly average. Overall, while there were a couple of dishes I enjoyed, the poor service and cleanliness issues would make me hesitant to return.
