Expansive Menu With Great Prices, Large Portions & Amazing Flavor
The pan-fried and steamed dumplings here are amazing, and the portions are much larger than you might expect. An order comes with eight dumplings, which is a lot, especially if you're ordering other food as we ordered these as appetizers. My friend wanted the steamed dumplings, while I went with the pan-fried, and then each of us ordered an entree. Once everything arrived, the entire table was covered with food. It looked like a feast!
Don't let the low prices fool you. The portions at Fu Fu Cafe are generous, and we ended up with a full to-go box of leftovers that provided another meal for both of us later. Interestingly, we reheated some of the leftovers at home in a wok with a little sesame oil, and they tasted amazing. I'm not sure if it was because the food had traveled for about three hours or if the reheating method made the difference, but everything held up surprisingly well. If you're taking food home, I'd definitely recommend reheating it properly rather than simply microwaving it.
The prices are another big plus, with many items priced around $7, making it easy to order several things without spending a fortune. I've tried several different dishes here, and so far, everything has been really good. The menu is also huge, with plenty of options to choose from.
The dumplings alone are some of the best I've had, and having both the steamed and pan-fried versions made it easy to compare them. With the generous portions, low prices, and huge selection, Fu Fu Cafe is definitely a place I'd return to whenever I'm in the area.
**Update**
The restaurant has moved further down the street to the West.
