Get ready for a dumpling adventure! The popular Journey to the Dumpling restaurant is expanding its empire in the Sacramento area, and we're thrilled to share the details!
This beloved dumpling haven, known for its mouthwatering xiaolongbao and an array of Chinese delights, is opening its third location in Folsom Palladio. Yes, you heard that right!
While the exact opening date and address remain a mystery for now, the restaurant's owner, Yvonne Tan, has revealed that this 5,000-square-foot culinary paradise will welcome hungry patrons in the latter half of 2026.
But here's where it gets controversial... Journey to the Dumpling has already established a loyal fan base in the region, with its existing restaurants in Elk Grove and midtown Sacramento. So, the question arises: Can this new outpost live up to the high standards set by its predecessors?
And this is the part most people miss... Journey to the Dumpling's story began in October 2016 when Yvonne and her husband, Chris, opened their flagship store in Elk Grove. After a three-year wait, they expanded to midtown Sacramento in November 2023.
So, will this new location be a game-changer or just another addition to the Sacramento food scene? We leave that for you to decide. Feel free to share your thoughts and predictions in the comments below!
Remember, in the world of dumplings, every bite tells a story, and we can't wait to hear yours!
