Growing up in Northern China, dumplings have always been the most special food for our family reunion. Apart from being tasty, what really makes them special is that their preparation involves all the family and the harmony and joy created among our family members: grandma makes the filling, uncle makes the dough, auntie makes the wrapper, mom makes the perfect dumplings, dad makes the most ugly ones and children simply get messy with flour in laughters. Now having children of our own, we started United Dumplings, hoping to pass along our fond childhood memories of happy family reunions to our children through our interpretation of dumplings. During the process of creating our menu, we kept grandma’s handed-down recipes but also incorporated the flavors we brought along with our life adventures. We hope you will enjoy them—just like so many do when searching for the best Chinese restaurant in San Francisco.

Sincerely,

Sandy and Julia (Maverick, Bruce, Iris, Ivy and Irina)
