The dumplings etc were very very tasty

The dumplings etc were very very tasty. We loved all of it.
The steamers were a god send. The instructions clear and accurate.
Nice that the packaging was thoughtful and caring for the environment.
We will definitely be ordering again. Have recommended Dingdongdim sum to friends and family.

My 5th purchase in the past year

My 5th purchase in the past year, which says it all really. Not cheap, but a wonderful and special treat. I bought 2 'extras' this time, as we'd invited my daughter to join us. The box for 2, plus the extras were plenty and she loved the meal as much as we did. Really special and tasty restaurant quality food. One small problem was the lower steamer tray collapsed 5 mins I to the first steaming. After a moment's panic we stapled a piece of folded card between the tear, then stabilised the whole thing by using 4 wooden clothes pegs to keep it in place on the metal saucepan. It worked!

Divine Dim Sum .

This is an absolutely wonderful company. The Dim Sum are divine and better than some restaurant quality dim sum I have had over the years. I have ordered a few times from Ding Dong Dim Sum and cannot fault anything about the company. From the excellent communication , the delivery in packaging that keeps the dim sum frozen/fresh until you receive them, the flavours and also the choice- I have never found anything that I could fault or criticise.

There are sublime dips that come with the dim sum and you d be surprised how much flavour they pack into the slaw ingredients. I tend to go for the dim sum favourites and there isn't a single weak dumpling/bun in the kits . I have steamers at home so I love the fact the company has also introduced the dim sum only ranges - their own steamers do exactly what they are meant to do and are robust enough that I have used them again - everything is well explained and convenient .
Each mouthful is a total joy ! They make me happy and coming home to the parcels makes even the bleakest of days better .

Delicious at home.

The food arrived as promised and packed beautifully.
The instructions were clear and simple. All the Dim Sums were great. Usually we go to Yauatcha for C hinese and Roka for Japanese but with this quality - one can enjoy a home experience anytime. Pity the menu is not bigger to include Venison puff or other baked delights.

Excellent communication regarding my delivery which, as we live nearly 1,000 km away took just a little longer!
Great fun to prepare. Very simple prep with fabulous instructions making you feel like a domestic goddess when you serve the meal!
Many thanks from a very happy dumpling!

Laced with MSG

A delicious meal, followed by a TERRIBLE night!
My husband and I ordered the favourites box for a special meal, and enjoyed the experience after getting 3 kids in bed.
Then we both felt weird and drifted in and out of sleep, I totalled about 3 hours 😬. I felt buzzy and delerious and didn’t know what was wrong. In the morning my husband described his night and had felt exactly the same.
Our immediate thought was that the food must have had MSG in it as we had experienced this years ago after a Chinese takeaway. I was doubtful though as Ding Dong Dim Sum is marketed as a reputable company and has a price tag to match. However, a quick Google of the ingredients listed MSG in all the sauces!!!! Initially we thought it was just the sauces, but then realised it was listed as an E-number in every dim sum too :-0. I found this somewhat sneaky.
We had to drive 3 hours home from our holiday the following morning feeling thoroughly unrested and a bit annoyed.
If you suffer the effects of monosodium glutamate DO NOT buy this product. I will be warning my friends of this company.

Lovely treat

Delicious and easy to prepare. I would like to refuse the steaming baskets as I already have bamboo ones, so they are a waste of resources - but can't find a means to do this in the ordering process. Any chance of adding a selection of 'no baskets' - before my next order?

Yum, delicious food

So impressed. The food was fantastic and it was a really nice experience preparing it as a family. It will become a regular treat day order I think.

Shocking customer service

Shocking customer service! I ordered a box for Valentine’s Day to be delivered on the Friday before. I placed the order two weeks in advance so they had plenty of time to arrange delivery. They contacted me on the Thursday (day before delivery) to say that because we had a highland postcode our delivery would not arrive until the Saturday. They asked us how confident we were that we could receive deliveries on a Saturday. We have parcels delivered on weekends all the time so didn’t think it would be a problem. The delivery didn’t arrive until Monday at 3:30pm by which point the food was spoilt. When I contacted them about the issue they offered a 20% refund and told us it was our fault for agreeing to a Saturday delivery. Perhaps if they had realised they should have dispatched our on the Wednesday instead of the Thursday we wouldn’t have had this issue.

Awful customer service

I ordered the favourite box and two extra pork buns. For some reasons when paying I was not charged for the extra pork buns order, for which I was unaware as my order confirmation clearly stated that I had ordered the extra buns and I instead paid a delivery charge.

I have a toddler and all meals for two we order an extra side and split three ways. When the order arrived we did not receive the pork buns. Therefore we did not have enough food to feed the family. We spent over £40 and was left hungry.

I emailed the company to advise of the situation. Whilst I appreciate I did not pay for the pork buns, I was none the wiser to this, as I said I had instead paid a delivery charge and my order advised the extra buns was placed. The company was extremely rude when I engaged them and did not appreciate that whilst their system errored out, I was left with not enough food to feed my family, yet paid £40.

The company advised they could send me the buns on a different night (fours days later) if I paid for them and they would wave the delivery fee. This obviously didn’t help the fact my family was left hungry… getting two buns at full price four days later doesn’t really help here. I therefore refused this offer.

Consequently be careful using this company. If their system errors out. Your impact is not a problem or concern to them!!! I would not use this company again!!!
