Our Story

In 2012, James Beard Award-winning chef Irene Li co-founded Mei Mei with her two older siblings. "Mei Mei” means little sister in Mandarin and our dumplings are an expression of the Li siblings’ favorite childhood food memories as Chinese-American kids growing up in Boston.

In 2020, Irene teamed up with Babson MBA graduates, Alyssa Lee and Annie Campbell, to lead the business in its transformation into a Dumpling Factory, Cafe, and Classroom.
