About Dumpling House 香饽饽 - Rototuna

The ramen comes loaded with egg, sweet corn, peas, greens, spring onion and sesame, with a choice of spiced ground pork, soy chicken or sweet fried tofu.

Dumpling House 香饽饽 Rototuna: Handmade Chinese Dumplings, Street Food and Ramen in Hamilton

On Horsham Downs Road in Rototuna, Dumpling House 香饽饽 keeps its focus where it belongs: on handmade Chinese dumplings. It carries the Dumpling House name in Hamilton, whose online ordering site shows a 4.6 rating, and its menu reads like a tribute to the dumpling in all its forms — steamed, pan-fried crisp, and served in hot and sour soup — backed up by a full run of street snacks, ramen, rice dishes and noodle plates. For Rototuna locals that means a proper Chinese dumpling kitchen close to home: order a box of pan-fried dumplings for the family, a steaming noodle soup for one, or work through the street-snack list with friends.

Mum's secret, folded by hand

The thread tying the menu together is what the menu itself calls mum's secret. The steamed pork and prawn dumplings — served over vegetables or over noodles — arrive dressed in mum's secret spicy garlic sauce, topped with spring onion, sesame seeds and roasted peanuts. The crispy pan-fried dumplings, one of the shop's top sellers, come twenty to an order with mum's secret garlic soy dipping sauce alongside. And if you like your dumplings soupy, the pork and cabbage dumplings float in a hot and spicy broth described, accurately, as spicy in a very nice way. The category name says it plainly — 手工饺子, handmade dumplings — and those sauces are what people come back for.

Street snacks and big plates

Alongside the dumpling list sits a row of Chinese traditional street food: the Chinese burger, a top seller; the spring onion pancake with salt and pepper; pan-fried pork buns in six-piece serves; spicy wontons in special chilli pepper sauce; and a large plate of cold spicy chicken in red chilli oil. It is a list made for mixing and matching — a pancake here, a burger there, wontons for the chilli-lovers.

Come hungry and the larger dishes take over. Two ramen bowls lead the way: a spicy dandan miso ramen built on sesame broth with roasted peanuts and peppercorn oil, and a signature miso ramen on double black miso broth with spring onion oil and fried shallots. Both offer a choice of spiced ground pork, soy chicken or sweet fried tofu, and every ramen comes served with egg, sweet corn, peas, green veges, spring onion and sesame seeds.

Rice dishes run the comfort spectrum — braised pork belly, braised pork ribs, braised beef, braised lamb ribs, curry beef, sweet and spicy fish fillet, spicy seafood, garlic prawn with coconut curry, hot and spicy tofu, egg and tomato, sweet and sour meatballs, even braised pig's intestine for the adventurous. Stir-fried rice comes with chicken, prawn meat or veges and egg, while the sizzling noodle plates land crackling at the table with black pepper beef, spicy seafood, spicy chicken fillets or vegetables. Noodle soups — wonton, gravy beef, spicy beef with pickled cabbage, chicken, pork rib, lamb rib and dan dan — round things out.
