We tried to go for the dishes labelled &#8216;New!&#8217;. <\/p>\n<p>Golden dumplings seemed to be a variation of shrimp dumplings, the golden color was from using corn in the stuffing. The texture of the wrapper was similar to wonton&#8217;s. I really enjoyed these little steamed shrimp and corn wontons, especially with my must-have chilli oil.  I would recommend to put a little chilli oil on any types of seafood dumplings at dim sum, enhancing the sweet and fresh seafood flavours. <\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123514-45314669.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123514-45314669.jpg\" alt=\"Golden Dumplings @ Gingeri\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Golden Dumplings @ Gingeri<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Cantonese style deep fried prawns were very different from Japanese praw tempura: the batter was a lot thicker. This dish reminded me my childhood favorite dish Deep Fried Oysters, which also always came with Worcestershire sauce. The additional touch of seaweed in the prawns was brilliant  making the dish even more delicious.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123520-45320163.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123520-45320163.jpg\" alt=\"Deep Fried Prawns @ Gingeri\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Deep Fried Prawns @ Gingeri<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The fried sticky rice flour dumplings were a dim sum classic, but here at Gingeri, they used a mild curry in the dried shrimp stuffing, which was a very nice surprise. <\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123518-45318530.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123518-45318530.jpg\" alt=\"Curry Dried Shrimp Sticky Rice Flour Dumplings @ Gingeri\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Curry Dried Shrimp Sticky Rice Flour Dumplings @ Gingeri<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The beef ball dumplings in soup was a variation of another dim sum classic &#8211; beef balls. I loved the idea of having it served in the soup with smooth and shiny yam noodles. But somehow they put a little too much dried orange peel in the soup and overpowered all other flavours in the soup. Oh well, I guess not all the dishes have to be perfect.  Overall, I quite enjoyed my dim sum experience at Gingeri Chinese Cuisine. <\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123516-45316554.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/20140805-123516-45316554.jpg\" alt=\"Beef Dumplings with Yam Noodles\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Beef Dumplings with Yam Noodles<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Map &#038; other reviews:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/14\/180704\/restaurant\/Vancouver\/Richmond-Central\/Gingeri-Chinese-Cuisine-Richmond\"><img alt=\"Gingeri Chinese Cuisine ??????? on Urbanspoon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/180704\/biglink.gif\" style=\"border:none;width:200px;height:146px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was my first time having dim sum at Gingeri.
