The Taiwanese fast-food chain Bafang Dumpling is planning to open in Santa Clara Square. The opening is expected later this year, likely in the Fall.
In addition to dumplings, the restaurant’s specialties include potstickers, Taiwanese noodle soup and boba milk teas.
The restaurant does not accept tips.
