Tried .edm, the new dumpling restaurant in Edmonton. They’re a chain from Montreal & here are my honest thoughts 🥟
I went in with high hopes thinking it was gonna be like Xiao Long Bao, but it is not… so “soup dumpling” in the title felt a little misleading 😅 oops
Anywho, their dumplings are handmade and you can choose from a ton of different filling options - veg, seafood and meat choices available. They come steamed or pan fried and you can also combine two flavours in one order, which is great if you want to try more.
I tried the (1) pork & cabbage, (2) shrimp, pork and chive as steamed dumplings and (3) black fungus, zucchini & vermicelli and (4) chicken & coriander as pan-fried dumplings. I liked the steamed dumplings and while most of the flavours felt mild, I preferred the pork & cabbage filling most. They had some juiciness to them but the order felt a little inconsistent, perhaps cause they’re new and handmade to order. The pan fried dumplings were burnt which was disappointing 😭
Also got the hot & sour soup, which was only $4 - but I’d pass on it next time. I thought the Jasmine soy milk was really good though.
All in all: affordable, decent variety, and cool to have a dedicated dumpling spot but not a wow for me. I might give it another shot once they settle in.
