I
attended
a
birthday
dinner
on
Friday
night
and
the
food
was
picked
up
from
Dumpling
King.
Unfortunately
it
was
even
worse
as
a
takeaway,
the
sweet
and
sour
chicken
was
almost
entirely
batter
and
the
Beijing
shredded
eggplant
was
incredibly
oily.
The
chicken
in
the
chicken
cashew
nut
was
very
poor
quality
tasting
also.

Original
review
We
went
to
Dumpling
King
last
night
for
dinner
and
were
very
disappointed.
Having
visited
Box
Hill
once
before
and
been
quite
pleasantly
surprised
I
had
expected
much
better
then
this.
We
started
by
ordering
a
variety
of
dumplings,
prawn,
beef
and
chicken
as
well
as
two
serves
of
spring
rolls.
The
prawn
dumplings
were
my
choice
and
when
they
arrived,
luckily
I
cut
into
them
as
they
were
steaming
hot.
That’s
when
I
realised
they
didn’t
look
like
prawn
and
queried
it
with
staff.
I’m
not
sure
how
but
they
had
misunderstood
our
order
as
pork.
As
a
non
pork
eater
I
can’t
tell
you
how
much
this
frustrates
me
and
how
regularly
it
happens
that
I
receive
something
with
pork
in
it
that’s
either
not
in
the
description
or
in
this
case
was
pure
error/misunderstanding.
The
actual
prawn
dumplings
themselves
took
an
eon
to
arrive
and
when
they
did
weren’t
much
chop.
I
even
found
a
prawn
tail
inside.
Surprising
for
a
place
professing
to
be
the
king
of
dumplings.
Main
wise
we
ordered
the
honey
chicken.
This
we
couldn’t
actually
see
on
the
menu
but
it
duly
arrived
after
it
was
ordered.
I
guess
it’s
a
staple
of
westernised
Chinese
food.
The
best
dish
was
definitely
the
satay
chicken
albeit
the
pineapple
within
definitely
tasted
canned
and
the
dish
itself
was
quite
small
relative
to
the
honey
chicken.
I
enjoyed
the
vegetarian
noodles
too
but
overall
we
weren’t
particularly
impressed
