[something something] Dumpling House

Location: Cupertino Village
Price: $$
Quality: Excellent!

Jenny and I went to check out this Shanghai style Chinese restaurant in Cupertino Village this weekend. Given that we had to wait 20 minutes for a table and that there were tons of Asian people in the restaurant, I knew we had come to the right place. Their dumplings were probably the best - you know, the kind with some sauce inside that you suck out before dipping it some soy/ginger sauce and then eating. The dumplings didn't break either, so I guess that's why they're so good. Anyway, so that was our appetizer. We then got some hot chicken with peanuts, beef with onion, and some shanghai style rice. I'm no expert on Chinese food, especially since Jenny did all of the ordering in Chinese, but the food was excellent and I would definitely recommend this place for anyone with a large or small group. We actually ran into a group of about 7 Stanford kids we knew. The beef was tender, the rice was tasty, and better yet, the tea was refilled quickly.

All in all, an excellent choice restaurant. Plus, the prices aren't bad - we paid about $30 (including tip) for 4 dishes. Oh, and if you pay with cash, you get 5% off your bill!
