Earlier in the year Dumplings Plus on Swanston Street received a makeover, which resulted in a bright and clean new restaurant with a beautiful store-front display for their take-away items. It was this take-away display that lured me in to Dumplings Plus after a long night out.

Stir fried noodles & beef slices in honey pepper sauce $13.80
Pan-fried mixed dumplings $12.40
I absolutely love dumplings and have tried many different styles of dumplings from a broad range of cultures including, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Polish and more. Although I have tried a wide range of styles, the Chinese style dumplings have always been a favourite of mine. The dumplings at Dumplings Plus had a slightly thicker skin than I was used to, but it was not overbearing, as the filling was quite robust in texture and flavour.
While there are definitely better choices for dumplings in the CBD, Dumplings Plus is definitely a good choice. The no-frills simplicity of the dumplings and other Chinese dishes they serve make it a good choice for a quick meal.
