Mai Xiang Yuan has been a go-to spot for dumpling lovers since 2010, serving up handmade delights with Northern Chinese flair. This cozy, no-frills eatery specializes in fresh, juicy dumplings made to order. With over 35 varieties to choose from—steamed, boiled, or fried—there’s something to satisfy every craving. The lamb and cilantro dumplings are a fan favourite, while the pork, shrimp, and mushroom variety offers a lot of flavour as well.

Don’t miss the fried dumplings with their perfectly crisped bottoms or the tender steamed options with just the right chew. Portions are generous, prices are wallet-friendly, and there’s an ATM on-site for this cash-only spot. The payoff is worth it when you bite into a dumpling that’s been lovingly hand-rolled.
