FlightHub Review is a strong believer that cultural diversity is one of the many ways in which metropolitan areas thrive. As a hub for intersecting ideas, ideologies, languages and customs, this mosaic also plays a large role in how a city differentiates itself in the culinary scene. For any traveler, knowing where to get the best food in any city goes hand-in-hand with how you experience your travels.
Qing Hua Restaurant, Lincoln and Guy, Shaughnessy Village
1676 Ave Lincoln
Montreal, QC H3H 2T5
Don’t be surprised if it takes you a couple of attempts to find this gem. Located on a small and hidden residential street next to one of the largest universities in Canada, Qing Hua Restaurant is a staple in any undergrads diet. This locally run shop has been a Montreal staple for ages, and in that time, they’ve perfected their recipes to serve you some of the best dumplings this city has to offer.
The restaurant shares its real estate with other shops and restaurants. Make your way through the doors and into the basement of the cozy restaurant where you’ll be greeted by Qing Hua’s staff. The unassuming décor is enhanced by the tenderly rolled, and deliciously stuffed dumplings made ready for you by the family matriarch. Grab a beer and relax over these steamy delights. FlightHub recommends getting around 3 orders of dumplings for 4 people, as the portions are quite filling, and are reasonably priced!
Oh! Dumpling, Rue Clark and De La Gauchetiere, China Town
1050 Rue Clark
Montréal, QC H2Z 1K3
Making your way into the traditional area of Montreal’s China Town, head south on Clark and make a discreet right onto Rue de la Gauchetiere and behold Oh! Dumpling. Relatively new to the Montréal foodie scene, Oh! Dumpling has a variety of different menu options to satisfy even the pickiest eaters. In an area inundated with different restaurants and dumpling options, FlightHub believes that this new restaurant has the potential to becoming one of the go-to places for Montrealers looking to get their dumpling fix. While you’re there, we recommend trying anything with lamb, as it’s the restaurant’s specialty.

Montreal is a city with a lot of diverse cultures and cuisines. Dumplings is one of our favorites, but there are so many more foods to explore in Montreal. Have you had the opportunity to try some of the delicious food in Montreal? What’s your favorite?
