REVIEW: Dumpling House in Toronto

While a lot us enjoy our dumplings at dim sum on a lazy hungover Sunday, some of us can't resist this culinary staple and bust out for the deliciousness of a grease fest during the week. If you're one of these people that likes dumplings whenever, wherever, or even all the time 24/7, then keep reading.

Dumpling house on Spadina Avenue in Toronto's Chinatown serves up delicious dumplings available in two configurations: steamed or fried. Fillings range from lamb, pork and shrimp, vegetarian and seafood. The fried are really fantastic and the steamed, well, they're OK (kinda mushy and not that tasty, actually).

Other dishes that deserve mention are: hot and sour soup (one of the best in Chinatown), bean curd and cucumber salad, shanghai noodles and eggplant in spicy garlic sauce.

Prices range from $3-$9. Dinner for 2 with tax and tip $20.

Dumpling house is located at 328 Spadina Avenue, north of Dundas Street.
