Pick whatever you like at GAO – Find flavors of Hong Kong in all-day dumpling shops across Copenhagen
The atmosphere is casually charged. The dumplings are handmade, hot, and habit-forming. With outposts in Nørrebro, Vesterbro, Kartoffelrækkerne, and the newest in City Center, GAO channels the spirit of Hong Kong’s backstreet dumpling shops into every corner of Copenhagen. Since it all started in 2016, their buzzing dumpling joints have endeavored to bring East Asia’s vibrant street food culture to the masses – right down to the glowing neon signs, sizzling pans, and, of course, the handmade dumplings. Whether you’re grabbing a bite at the bar, getting your on-the-go fix, or taking frozen dumplings for the freezer at home, GAO satisfies your cravings wherever you are.

Co-founder Tem Hansen first visited Hong Kong as a master’s student, and ended up staying there for eight years. When he returned to Copenhagen, he found himself missing the flavorful, ever-accessible dumplings of his former host city. Determined to bring the experience home, he set out to create a dumpling shop of his own. Since 2016, GAO has been handcrafting dumplings for hungry locals, blending expressions of East Asian street food with Scandinavian simplicity. With four locations across Copenhagen – and now two in Antwerp – GAO remains true to its founding ethos: dumplings for the people.
