I'm going back to try those noodles, and try to find other authentic regional things on the menu. Maybe my pork mince/cucumber noodles were a bit ordinary because they weren't fried, so they were more "wet", you know?<br /><br />Hi Billy - wow, of course. We sometimes lump all these things together under "Chinese" or "Italian" and sometimes forget how many wonderful sub-cuisines are there. One time I went to D & More, and two diners were having fried rice. I wanted to shake them and say, "Eat the special dumplings! Try the skewers! Try the salads!"<br /><br />Hi Temasek - Dumplings & More is pretty empty too! Not sure what it is. Maybe the time that I go. The thing is, some of the dishes aren't the best I've ever had, but there's something I really like about this little restaurant.<br /><br />Hi Diane - fantastic! I love good vegie dumplings; they are hard to do well. Maybe that's their dumpling forte. And aren't they such great winter food... yum!Lauren aka Ms Bakloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08540872180823771651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-88187156738647856462010-06-11T09:10:09.360+10:002010-06-11T09:10:09.360+10:00I've recently moved to the area and have alrea...I've recently moved to the area and have already been to Dumplings + More a few times - their steamed and fried vegetarian dumplings really are great!

We usually go to 1+1 for skewers and also for their lamb dumplings in soup ... but the last couple of times we've been there the quality hasn't been that great and the place has been fairly empty ... which is a sure sign something's up.Temasekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14200526730444111994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-73899716377773969072010-06-09T19:58:51.728+10:002010-06-09T19:58:51.728+10:00I might take my parents here (or to 1 + 1) once I ...I might take my parents here (or to 1 + 1) once I move. They're big fans of Northern style Chinese food. To Dad, it's 'exotic' - because it's not Cantonese, you see!cloudcontrolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04166808960017060326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-34888144350295271822010-06-09T16:16:15.341+10:002010-06-09T16:16:15.341+10:00Went here today for lunch (on your blog's reco...Went here today for lunch (on your blog's recommendation) and split the fried lamb dumplings, potato salad (yummm!) and fried beef noodles. Big portions! Dumplings were good but I would say 1+1's are better - however the noodles were out of control.. so good! Big fat noodles and lots of beef, tomato, green pepper, celery and onion. The owner is from Liaoning so she certainly knows how to make some ridgey didge Dongbei cuisine. Really great.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05199472280707226195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-19043702414700853562010-06-09T13:53:27.572+10:002010-06-09T13:53:27.572+10:00Hi Anon - yes, very similar menus.
