Din Tai Fung, Melbourne, VIC

Once described by world renowned chef Ken Hom as the "world's tastiest dumpling”, it may seem strange that there is such an art to eating something no bigger than the average mouthful. Din Tai Fung has a signature point of difference - every dumpling pastry is delicately hand made to measure between precisely 4.8 and 5.2 grams at conception, before being filled to weigh between 20.8 and 21.2 grams. All this and the promise that the dumplings are made fresh in front of your eyes, steamed in exactly three minutes and on your table in seconds. Such scientific precision and quality control is what makes Din Tai Fung stand out from the rest. The first Din Tai Fung that opened in 1974 was only a humble stall in Taipei. Now the world renowned restaurant has opened it's doors in Emporium Melbourne! For access during core trading hours please use the escalator and lifts next to Jimmy Grants.
