Also known as Xiao Long Bao. 'Nuff said.

My favourite item here. Ever. These delectable Shanghainese dumplings are steamed and fried at the same time resulting in a soft pillowy top and a crispy golden brown bottom. The soup inside is intense and full of flavour as is the pork filling. Be careful when you bite into them though. These do squirt! 🙈

Absolutely delicious! The prawns were fresh, the dumpling skin was thin and smooth, the sauce was utterly delicious. What more can one ask for?

I still like the ones here more than DTF.

Skin thin enough that you can see the soup through it... we ordered 3 baskets of these delectable morsels.

Soup dumplings. Moar. Please. Now.

Nicely done pork dumplings which are still juicy on the inside.

Xiao Long Bao. Need I say more?

Mix of gogi mandu (pork dumplings) and kimchi mandu (kimchi & pork dumplings). These were fantastic. They were juicy and flavour packed… and just look at how thin the skin is!

Very good dumplings, even better than their wantons. Generous amount of filling wrapped in delicate dumpling skin that somehow still manages to stay intact.

Looks plain but this was jam packed with flavour. Have it with some black vinegar and fresh ginger!

Served with sour cream and a rather good homemade chilli dip. Full disclosure, I love dumplings so it’s a natural “Really Good” for me. Some people might find the skin a little too thick although I really don’t mind that at all.

These vegetable dumplings really hit the spot. Soup was good too, one of those a-hug-in-a-bowl kinda comfort food.

Pork wantons tossed very simply in a bit of light sauce and sesame oil. That's all you really need to enjoy this. And just look at how thin that wanton skin is... So good!

Pan-fried dumplings with a juicy pork and french bean filling. Delicious! Be careful when you eat this, you might end up squirting your dining companions with 'soup' when you bite into your dumpling ;-)

I feel like it’s better in another branch. It’s still good, and it could be my imagination... but I think I had better ones at another DTF. No shade though, I’d still order these if I revisit.

To be fair, I thought the filling and soup was really good. Had to minus points for the slightly thicker skin though.

Musang king durian. In a dumpling. Holy thorny fruit. This would be good for durian virgins, as the durian flavour was quite mild. Durian hardcores however, will find this slightly lacking. Best to stick to the actual fruit itself.

Slightly disappointed with this. The skin was a bit too thick and there was not enough soup in the dumplings. It’s not bad, but there are certainly better XLBs in town.

Not quite Really Good but almost there. Minus points because they thought we were Singaporeans haha (I jest!). The rice part was good, not mushy and still retained its individual grain shape. Filling was quite generous as well, with a large piece of Chinese mushroom, a big chunk of pork, a whole salted egg yolk and a whole chestnut. I quite enjoyed this. On weekends they have Hakka kuih as well so do make sure you time your visit properly.

I can’t really fault this dish, there was much flavour in it and the wanton skin was thin and smooth. This one was just a preference issue.

Fish balls. Not balls of fish.

Happy Dumpling Festival! This Teochew style glutinous rice dumpling came with a filling of pork, dried mushroom, chestnut, dried shrimp, red bean paste and salted egg yolk. Slightly different from the ones that I usually eat but interesting enough due to the addition of red bean paste. Available online and comes packed in a vacuum seal to retain freshness and I believe it’s only sold during the dumpling festival season.

Needed a bit more crisp but overall decent.
