Last week my friend and I ventured over to the Dumpling Palace in Back Bay. Although Dumpling Palace has been open since May, this past week was their official opening party and they went ALL out.
Dumpling Palace is the sister restaurant of Dumpling Cafe in Chinatown and if you are a lover or soup dumplings (or any dumplings really) than either of these restaurants are for you.
If you don’t know what a soup dumpling is, get your hands on some ASAP. These steamed buns are filled with pork and hot soup. They are comforting and so fun to eat, just be careful not to stuff the whole thing in your mouth and burn yourself. The trick is to bite off the top to let the steam out and let them cool slightly before digging in.
Look at this beauty ❤

Beside soup dumplings, Dumpling Palace had an array of many other options to try as well. I have never seen so many tasty dumplings all in one place. It was pure heaven.
Now let’s get up close and personal…
