Sumthin Dumplin

Bloody good dumplings/potstickers. If you like a bit of a shake up on the conventional dumpling, someyhing slightly fried but moist and saucy. Id recommend giving these guys a try. I got the Beef n Cheese regular (6 pieces) and it is actually perfect for lunch. Friendly bunch too that are happy to explain why their dumplings are different.

Hard working staff. Friendly, fast, helpful and gave great recommendations. They have pay wave unlike the shops in the Korean town. Very clean place. That’s always assuring. The food looked appealing and tasted great. I love watching the people prepare the dumplings through the glass window. There is a lot of that around here. So refreshing to be able to watch your meals getting made. You would definitely come back.

Got the OG with their chili. The dumplings are great, love the contrast of textures between the dough on too, the springy filling and the crusty yet mochi-like bottom. The sauce was just okay, it was kind of jammy but not in a good way. I'll get a different sauce nice time, because the dumplings were real nice.

I have eaten a lot of dumplings in my life, and nothing quite compares to the dumplings at this place. The dumplings are fresh and absolutely delicious. Every bite was memorable and it just gave you that incredible sensation. Prices are fair and despite the long queues they serve your order within 5-10 minutes. This place is a must visit, whether you are a dumpling-lover or not.

A great takeaway food option in downtown Auckland. The dumplings are delicious, the staff friendly and efficient. Did not have to wait long in the middle of the lunchtime rush. There are a couple of stools inside and more seating outside on the street. A bonus is that they offer wholemeal dough wraps!

As you head into the shop you can see them make the dumplings by the windows at the entrance. It was closed when we arrive just before 6pm because they had a large order that was being made. They did hand out fortune cookies while we waited. There was already a line and the shop wasn't even open yet. Large menu on top of the counter so its easy to see what they have to offer, as well as the sizes, regular with 6 or large with 10. You can smell the cooking dumplings as you wait in line. We ordered and managed to get one of the few seats in the store. Most people just took their orders outside to eat them piping hot. The dumplings came with a sauce of your choosing. They also had other things on the menu like tofu fries and shakes, but they weren't available when we were there. The dumplings were bready. I was expecting something more akin to a gyoza. Flavours were nice. We had the OG and the 3 spice prawn. Tasted nice with and without the sauce. I felt it was more snackish than a meal though (otherwise you might end up ordering all the dumplings).
