"After building up a fan base at various farmers markets and festivals, Chinese pop-up Dumpling Haus is headed to a permanent location. The restaurant from self-trained chef Elaine Won is set to open its doors at 2313 Edwards Street, Suite 180 in the Sawyer Yards development early next year. For those who aren’t in the know, Won’s been testing her pan-fried dumplings at spots across the city since 2018, including stops at popular bars like Axelrad and Johnny’s Gold Brick. It’s a family effort for Won, who operates the restaurant with her daughters Ashley Lai and Amiley Lai. When Dumpling Haus debuts at Sawyer Yards, expect a dumpling-focused menu bolstered by “homestyle Chinese dishes” like beef noodle soup, glass noodles, and liang ban, or a selection of Taiwanese cold dishes. Grab-and-go options will be on offer, along with plenty of eats for vegan and gluten-free diners. Expect Dumpling Haus to hit Sawyer Yards in January 2020. Stay tuned for an opening date." - Amy McCarthy
