E-Dragon Dumpling Bar East Village

Been here twice and ordered wontan noodle soup for lunch. The clear soup and wontan dumbling have great fresh garlic flavours with very plain thin rice noodles. Staff is very helpful to order the menu.

The food at this restaurant was surprisingly nice. On a cold day, I was craving comfort food and hot dumplings hit the spot. We stumbled upon this place while avoiding the high parking rates in the city CBD on a weekday. The restaurant is small with limited seating both inside and out. We opted for the meat meal deal which included deep fried pork or soy chicken (we chose the pork), pork belly buns, and pork and vegetable noodles. We also ordered Shanghai dumplings. The sauces and cutlery were inconveniently located at the front counter, and the customer service was lacking. However, the food arrived quickly. The pork was small but tasted decent, though a bit dry. The dumplings were good, with a sizable meatball but chewy skin. The pork belly buns had nice flavors, but the standout dish was the noodles. They were a generous portion and cooked perfectly. I could have easily eaten more. I would definitely return to try other items on the menu.

Excellent food, reasonable price. Random seating situation with tiny little stools, totally only good for small people. Dumpys were excellent, and super super quick!

Vegetarian meal deal $13<br/ <br/ Vegetarian dumplings are filled with preserved greens and tofu. It has a noticeably chemical taste. Not for everyone. <br/ <br/ The skin has a chewy and noodle like texture. Tastes better with soy than vinegar.<br/ <br/ Fried rice is well seasoned and not oily. Impressive! Main condiments are eggs, chopped beans and preserved vegetables. Portion is substantial.<br/ <br/ Good value meal.

I had the prawn and chive steamed dumplings, they were nice but the dumpling wrapper was a bit thick and doughy tasting. The garlic sesame noodles were my favourite and I could have eaten a bowl of them three times the size of it lol
