No meal here would be complete without trying the Silver Roll Bread (Php 110), known for its soft, fluffy texture. This bread pairs wonderfully with the tender Hongma (Php 305), a slow-cooked braised pork belly that’s rich in flavor. The combination of the bread’s airy texture and the savory pork creates a perfect harmony on the palate.

With such a diverse and satisfying menu, Tasty Dumplings offers something for everyone, making it a must-try spot for food enthusiasts looking to explore authentic flavors and enjoy a fulfilling meal.

It’s worth noting that Tasty Dumplings fills up during peak hours but that shouldn’t discourage you from visiting the restaurant as they have a second floor that they use in case the first floor gets full!
