North China cuisine. Friendly service. Absolutely delicious food. Cold beef dish and seaweed - a must. Top it off with some dumplings or better still dumpling soup. Many varieties available. Don't expect rice of prawn crackers here!
My favourite Chinese spot in town! The tender beef noodle soup is my go-to, but the dumplings are equally amazing.
I wish I have more than 5 stars. Incredible small dumpling magic, all homemade. The flavours and freshness is simply incredible.

Their dumplings are all homemade, there are many different types of fillings. The dumplings are authentic, but they are not the best. Price is decent, and the customer service is really good. Their cold dishs are very tasty. I would recommend dumplings and cold dishes.
A very authentic place!
I went there to have some warm soup and I have to say that it was delicious. The bowl was very big and we payed around £10 per person.
I asked the waiter about some plates and he very enthusiast explaining them and recommending us.
Perfect for a cheap and warm soup in the cold winter of Cambridge.
