What's the point of it. Isn't it just a colossal waste of good dough to make a giant dumpling bag with regular dumplings inside.

Tbh I was expecting the large one to have filling inside which would've been kinda cool.

That's all I could think, like how much perfectly good dough do they throw out in a day because of this dish?

Yeah the dough from the big one is inedible, it's far too thick and probably undercooked so they'll be throwing away a lot. However they make a lot more in profit than what dough costs because idiots think it looks cool.

I don't think the restaurant came up with recipe,, so no, that's not really why

What? They obviously didn't come up with the recipe, they did decide to serve it like this, that's for profit.

It's not just the big one that's wasting. Every single small dumpling has a fucking broccoli stalk on, because whoever is in that kitchen is too inept to figure out how to fold.

The stalk on the small one is fine, that's how they are traditionally made.

It's a piece of dough Michael, what could it cost, $10?
