Foreign Dumplings brings six kinds of dumpling to the Beer Academy next week
Hot on the heels of last weekend’s Slurp Noodlefest comes another pop-up event whose starting point is a popular Asian dish. Foreign Dumplings is hosted by Nick Liu (of still-not-open GwaiLo), and takes place at the Beer Academy on March 11. Six chefs will each present their take on the humble dumpling, ranging from Top Chef Canada contestant Steve Gonzalez’s Latin version (a fried pork and potato empanada) to Zane Caplansky’s Eastern European creation, featuring, naturally, smoked meat. Tickets for the six-course meal are $58, and include one sample glass of beer. Find out more »
i like to start how much i enjoy the group of seven chef’s dishes. All of them are really delicious and well plated. i didnt leave any sauce left in the plate and couldnt get enough of it.
but the others ones was awful.
i have to point out caplansky dish was cold and tasteless. the dumpling meat wasnt even juicy at all. i couldnt finish it
the empanada shll is too thick …felt like im only eating the batter…
the chinese pan fried dumpling was alright. nothing surprising….
i have to say its not worth it for me to go another time to this kind of event . The price admission is very expensive. i rather spend that money at a restaurant with services and good food.
