$1 Dumplings at Hawker Hall
Either score these cheap eats during your lunch break on Wednesday or Thursday, or head down on the Friday public holiday for a long dumpling-filled feed.
Overview
You don't really need an excuse to head down to a Melbourne dumpling joint — filling the table with steam-filled bamboo containers — but if you ever did need a reason to get on the dumpling train, Hawker Hall's three-day $1 dumpling special is it.
From Wednesday, September 25–Friday, September 27, this Chapel Street haunt is selling a stack of its signature dumplings for just $1 a pop during its lunchtime service (12.30–3.30pm).
This includes its crispy prawn and pork wontons with sriracha mayo; shiitake mushroom dumplings with ginger soy; prawn and chive har gao with spiced caramel soy; wagyu beef dumplings with chilli crunch; and pan-fried chicken dumplings with crispy green chilli oil.
Either score these during your lunch break on Wednesday or Thursday, or head down on the Friday public holiday for a long and cheap dumpling-filled feed.
