Mietta's Review
For dumpling addicts this is a wonderland, if a little hard to find. A doorway off one of the many China town lane ways, Camy Shanghai serves steamed or deep fried dumplings, spring onion cakes and noodles at dirt cheap prices. It's quick, cheap and casual, and much loved by Asian students, office workers, and well informed city shoppers. It is a hit with children as well.

Herald Sun Top 20, 23-05-09 "NO-FRILLS dining is at its finest at Chinatown stalwart Shanghai Dumpling. Judging by the almost permanent line out the front door, which can form as early as 5"

The Foodies' Guide 2004,Allan Campion & Michele Curtis,'If we find ourselves in the city and feel peckish we drop in here for excellent Peking pork dumplings and a plate of Shanghai noodles.Satisfaction has a price and it's around $12-bargain.'
