Charlie Dumpling

The verdict

We can’t get enough of dumplings, and thankfully Charlie Dumpling brings our favourite silky bags of tasty goodness to Prahran’s High Street. Banquette seating runs along a wall of kooky coloured doors opposite a bar perfect for perching at. Ex-Claremont Tonic and Cutler & Co chef, Dylan Roberts, is on hand making the perfect little morsels, with the snapper, chilli, lime and black bean and the Peking duck and spiced plum sauce kings of the savoury selection, but if the waist band is of no consequence, why stop there? Sweet dumplings include a milk chocolate, chilli sugar and raspberry sorbet offering that will blow your mind and your diet. There's also a great private dining space upstairs, which is perfect for hosting your next function (or as we like to call it, your next dumpling feast!). Regardless of whether you're visiting for a quick dinner for two, or a larger sesh with friends, if it's Melbourne's best dumplings you're looking for then look no further than Charlie Dumpling!
