We’ve been fans of dumpling professionals New Shanghai since we had a chance to check out their Chatswood restaurant, but their new outlet at Bondi Junction means those south of the Bridge can get a piece of the action too.
And starting March 21st (that’s next week people), Mondays through Fridays from 6-7pm will be dumpling happy hour, with all dumplings on the menu half price. Which means you can eat twice as many.
New Shanghai are known for their pan-fried pork dumplings (pictured), a crispy, chewy dumpling skin with a pork and broth filling, but in the interests of letting you know exactly what’s on offer, we thought we’d give the rest a sample too.
Coming up trumps was the classic combo of pork and chives, but we also doff our hats to New Shanghai for less encountered flavour combinations such as lamb and leek, chicken and celery and beef and coriander. And as a pleasant surprise for vegetarians, the vegetable dumplings here actually contain plenty of greenery.
New Shanghai Bondi is on Level 5 of the Westfield Bondi Junction.
Dumpling happy hour is 6-7pm M-F for a limited time. So get in there.
