Little Tiger Dumpling Pakuranga is a Chinese restaurant at 3/60 Ti Rakau Drive, Pakuranga, Auckland, with online ordering through its website and a 4.9 rating from 31 Google reviews. A good dumpling house shows its quality in the wrappers: a slight chew that marks dough rolled fresh rather than the flat, uniform bite of frozen ones. Steaming shows the filling at its cleanest, pan-frying gives a crisp underside, and regulars tend to order a mix of both, with a plain broth or a cold cucumber salad on the side to cut the richness. Made-to-order dumplings take longer, and the wait is usually a good sign; a plate that arrives within minutes of ordering has often come from a freezer. A short menu of a few things done well, folded on site, is another marker worth trusting. On Ti Rakau Drive in east Auckland, Little Tiger Dumpling gives Pakuranga a neighbourhood spot for exactly this kind of cooking.
