Dumpling (Jiaozi) Party

We were invited to a Dumpling Party on Saturday. I was very excited to learn how to make Jiaozi/Dim Sums (dumplings). Unfortunately or should I say fortunately I will have to attend another one of these to actually learn how to make them from scratch. I found out that it is a little more complicated than just folding the filling into the dough, which is what I got to try...and I had fun trying.

We had a fun evening, Asian style with delicious dumplings, mooncakes, chengteng, barley ginko, chocolate brownies, bak-kua, pandan-cake and more.

The shoes lined up at the door was the 1st sign of a true Asian party.
