We ordered the cucumber, pork ears, beef roll pancake, Q-bao, beef pan fried dumplings, pork soup dumplings, pork and shrimp soup dumplings, and Ube milk teas.
The cucumbers tasted more sweet than your traditional cucumbers, more for the pleasing anesthetics of finely sliced cucumber that is all attached together and you are able to lift up with your fork or chopsticks and it will hold as one.
If you've never tried the pork ears, I would not let this be your first place to try them, go to Chinatown and get them from San dong noodle house. Here at dough zone they were slimy, not the texture you really want from eating.
Beef roll pancake, meat was good, the outside was crispy but it made it crumbly, almost felt like I was eating a taco
Q-bao is listed as a "must try" on the menu they describe it as soft on top and crispy on the bottom. I guess it just lacked flavor from the other Q baos or crispy baos I've tasted like wannabaos, their crispy baos are small but on point because they are a little crispy everywhere and the bottom. Here the baos were crispy on the bottom and soft on top like advertised, not sure about must have though
Beef pan fried dumplings: this came out last, it has a pretty lace fried bottom to connect the dumplings together, when we took a bite into it, it was chicken, Server was quick to take care of that and got us the right order. We were pretty full when it came out so we took one bite and took the rest to go.
Pork soup dumplings, best item that we tried. They suggest the vinegar and ginger dipping, but that was just okay.
Pork shrimp soup dumplings, I would just choose the pork soup dumplings
The Uber milk tea, probably powder but refreshing and much better tasting than the water :)
I would go back again, but I'd probably just choose to have the pork soup dumplings and ube milk tea.
