Free Dumplings at New Shanghai

Overview

Dumplings, those slippery little parcels of pastry-wrapped meat and vegetables, have long been a friend to the budget-conscious. Running low on cash before pay day? Have dumplings for dinner. Saving your pennies for your next big getaway? Dumplings for dinner. Fancy eating a sizeable meal at a small price? You guessed it — and you can always change things up by having dumplings not just for dinner, but for lunch.

If there's one dish that's better that an affordable plate of freshly steamed or fried dumplings, however, it's tucking into those bite-sized pieces for free. And that's what Pitt Street's New Shanghai is serving up across the weekend of Saturday, March 9 and Sunday, March 10. Expect the joint to be busy, unsurprisingly.

Just drop by the Westfield spot at three set times: between 11am–12pm, 2–3pm and 4–5pm. Three types will be on offer, two, so we hope you like mini pork and prawn wontons, chicken and celery dumplings, and pork and Chinese cabbage dumplings. And you might want to get in early, with the freebies being cooked up while stocks last.
