We had the lamb & coriander dumplings. Delicious & simple, just what was needed after a long day!
The special yogurt cake was cherry on top, a delightful not too sweet just right dessert.
Will definitely go back again,

Such a cute little place! The wonton soup was so good. The dumplings are so juicy, I took the fried ones. Next time I will try the steamed ones(because there's definitely going to be a next time). Also the ladies there are absolutely adorable & sweet 🫶🏽
