Gaochi King

The long-running dumpling house at 228 Swan St, trading these days as Gaochi King, with handmade dumplings and a fierce Sichuan chilli fish.

Listing last updated

There has been a dumpling restaurant at 228 Swan St since the late 1990s, and it now trades as Gaochi King. The draw is unchanged: handmade Chinese dumplings, praised for juicy fillings and delicate steamed wrappers, in a lantern-lit room between the Lissom studio and Woodenstone Barbers.

Beyond the dumplings, the signature is a Sichuan chilli fish for those who like some heat. Open seven days from late morning to about 10pm, with casual sit-down plus takeaway and delivery. A neighbourhood stalwart that quietly holds a near-perfect rating.
