The inconspicuous Aunty’s Dumplings opened in 2026, bringing outstanding handmade dumplings to the neighbourhood. The fillings mostly hark back to Jinzhou, a coastal city in the Liaoning province in China’s northeast. Expect sauerkraut and pork dumplings, plus others filled with pork, chive and prawn.

The family behind the place gets all its produce from nearby Queen Vic Market and makes up to 1000 dumplings a day from scratch, including some filled with mackerel or black squid when the produce is available. In addition to eight regular and some seasonal dumplings, there are smaller dishes such as cabbage and carrot pickles, and Dongbei jelly – tofu topped with a savoury jelly that has pieces of century egg and pork set into it.
