Lonely Planet review

This pocket-sized and homely restaurant dishes up dozens of varieties of Chinese dumplings. All the jiǎozi are listed on red plaques on the walls but there's no English menu. A sample of what's on offer: lamb (羊肉; yángròu; ), pork (猪肉; zhūròu; ), beef (牛肉; niúròu ), donkey (驴肉; lǘròu ) and mushroom and cabbage (香菇白菜; xiāngsū báicài ). There are only around 10 tables draped in simple tablecloths, busied over by the unfussy, polite owners.
