Xi Home Dumplings Bay

Xi Home is a compact culinary gem offering an authentic taste of China, artfully blending tradition with vibrant neighborhood charm. Stepping inside might evoke the initial impression of a modest take-out venue, yet beneath this guise lies a treasure trove of seating across two cozy floors—upstairs and in the delightful cellar-like basement. The menu is an ode to Northeastern Chinese cuisine, prominently featuring dumplings crafted fresh before your eyes by swift-handed artisans. Among the highlights are the beef dumplings, pork with chives, and the innovative chicken and corn parcels, each paired excellently with a soy and chili dipping sauce. Noodle enthusiasts will find satisfaction in bountiful bowls of beef soup enriched with vegetables and tender beef ribs. For those yearning for a hint of spice, dishes like the fiery Mapo Tofu promise complexity and a satisfying kick. Beyond dumplings, the sweet and sour pork showcases the delicate balance needed to achieve its crispy yet tender perfection. Xi Home’s inclusion of a variety of vegetarian and vegan-friendly options broadens its appeal further, crafting a dining experience as diverse as it is delicious.
