A bit about our guest: Brooklyn Dumpling Shop is a fast-growing Calgary-based eatery serving inventive fusion dumplings in two flagship locations, with more spots (plus upcoming Marda Loop and Country Hills Blvd) on the horizon. Founded by Pat and his team, the restaurant elevates classic flavors—think mac & cheese, Korean BBQ, and bacon cheeseburger—wrapped in house-made dumplings and paired with bold sauces.

About Daniella & Business Bites: Daniella’s journey began at the age of nine, when she immigrated to Canada from Nigeria with her parents and two siblings. After spending fifteen years in Calgary, she recognized a persistent challenge: authentic ethnic cuisine was not only difficult to find, but also costly and often inaccessible due to limited ingredient availability. This insight sparked the creation of The BRDGE—a platform designed to make culturally diverse foods more affordable, accessible, and celebrated within Canadian communities.
