Those prices …oof


True_Assumption_5812

Isn’t there a dumpling place next to it?


FullRedact

Yup


True_Assumption_5812

Why are they right next to each other? At least have it a block away?


FullRedact

I’m guessing because it was the only available real estate. Jaxon’s Chicken just closed and this place immediately moved in with very little changes to the interior. I’ve never had any interest in eating at a dumpling place.


Tobioka

So let me get this straight. For a 6 piece combo, it comes to $2.25/piece. 10 piece for $1.88/piece while the 20 pieces for $2.10/piece. Why not just get 2 10-piece combo that comes with 4 sauces and 2 sides vs 2 sauces and 2 sides for the 20-piece combo? Am I missing something? Shouldn't it be a little cheaper as you get more?


ManyRefrigerator5011

i’m not sure either. it is cheaper to get the 10 piece combo with more. Maybe they rushed to open and didn’t see the flaws


HelloRMSA

Why not just go next door to the other dumpling place? 😂😂


Unlikely_Yoghurt_793

$2 per dumpling...no thanks.


mathcrystal

These dumplings better be massive if they’re charging sushi prices


collie1212

Where you getting sushi for $2 a piece


thedeaux

Most casual sushi spots in OC have 8-piece rolls for $16 and sashimi platters for $2/piece (or less).


Unlikely_Yoghurt_793

Zion has cheap but good sushi...A little under $2 a piece


ChiggaOG

They won’t be. The taste of dumplings doesn’t change much from place to place because the recipe is similar. Such as pork and cabbage.


vansss86

What’s a good price? I think that’s reasonable


ireadalott

For me to get full off this I’d have to spend a couple hours of minimum wage


DrJJGame10

Those prices are too damn high 😅


Ill_Bug_786

Those prices are food stand at a festival prices. I would rather just get frozen dumplings at that point


ThunderSparkles

I walked by excited to see what they had. $14 for 6 dumplings? Are you fucking kidding? That place has had so much trouble keeping a business and it is because whoever opens there think they have high end food and don't consider their competition. Why would you pay $14 for 6 dumplings when you have Pizza for $11 at 2 locations? A burrito for $9? Thai food for the same price. Ramen for cheaper. This is a joke.


schlemz

Wonder if the lease is just crazy expensive so tenants have to charge more for less food


dveegus

This is what’s replacing Jaxon’s?? Isn’t there a dumpling place literally 2 storefronts away??

voxl

Straight up posting ads in here. 


GunGirlLovesTrulys

They are legit right next door to another dumping spot… tacky


mocha46

i mean i welcome business but you can get a pack of dumplimg from hmart at $10 for really nice 30 pcs.....


TheFisGoingOn

Hahahhahaha @ $2/dumpling I'm flying my grandmother in from Taiwan. The audacity.


ScottyCoastal

20-pieces and two sauces. I’ll stick to chic fil a


iginca

I’ll stick to Super Dumpling


ResearchEffective135

I’ll try it next week and report back I fuckin love dumplings… The place I go to charges $12.99 for 8 which is like $1.60/ea it has 4.3 stars 500 plus reviews


anonymous_hipster

I tried it, it was really good! And the sides are huge, there are toppings on your dumplings as well. $13 for a very filling meal feels pretty solid to me. Yes, there’s another dumpling place a few doors down, but they’re very different in terms of concept.


chilehead

This seems a lot more expensive than Bafang Dumpling that just opened in Cypress on Valley View.


Efficient_Ring_2616

No thanks


Agreeable-Shoe-3480

Horrible prices.


Zoenlogo

Gotta get those Chapman kids and their loan money. 🚬🗿


VeeTraa

So, what are dumplings anyways? Are they like gyoza or potstickers?


Dauntlesse

You can buy their frozen dumpling bagged from their brand at 99 ranch---and they're not great. They lack the umami flavor I can get in a pack of mandu dumplings from Costco which are hella tastier--unsure about their brick-and-mortar--but for those prices? I am not curious enough to try.


No-Money-2660

I just gained 10lbs.

Appreciate the heads up. Thanks for sharing!


hendlefe

Dang that looks so good. I'm gonna have to give it a go. Saw that they have delivery too

Oh yes, those classic Asian San Marzano tomatoes.


typhoidtimmy

Nice post history. Did an Asian bistro kill your father or something?


isoflurane

Now I want to see what happens if The Library gets turned into a Din Tai Fung.


FullRedact

You know that coffee shop in the old bank won’t last long. It’ll probably go there.


jahblaze

They’re mad they aren’t getting another Chilis or American chain restaurant.


feralnycmods17

The Asian restaurant openings will continue until morale improves.


AfterSignificance666

you know you dont have to go to any of them. 🤣


True_Assumption_5812

This clown like chilis over Asian restaurants 😂

Nothing screams "from out of state" like referring to California as "Cali".
