I'd heard a few good things about this small Korean dumpling restaurant in Bank Street, so I was very eager to get there and see what the hype was about.
Mandoo - which is Korean for "dumpling" is a small, authentic and very basic eatery that sells just that - dumplings. The menu is more or less limited to fried or steamed dumplings in either chicken, pork or vegetarian. Aside from these dishes there are one or two other choices but they were either not available on the day or could only be ordered for dinner.
Each plate of dumplings costs about $10. This gets you 8 dumplings, a small lettuce salad, a scoop of mashed potato (odd, I know) and some really good chilli dipping sauce. One plate is sufficiently satisfying for a lunch.
I tried the Steamed mandoo in vegetarian and also in Kimchi, which is a traditional Korean flavour and the Chicken fried mandoo. All of the dumpling were fresh, well made, full of flavour and the fried dumplings were particularly nice.
If you enjoy dumplings, this place is for you. The simplicity of Mandoo works well on all levels and adds to the appeal of the place. Mandoo Korean Dumplings, worth a visit if you happen to be around Bank Street in the city.
