Delicious dumplings 🥟👌🏼 - Edit
Travelling through Central America it obviously hasn’t been very common to find dumplings on the menu, so I was very happy to satisfy my dumpling cravings. We ordered some of the Asian veg dumplings, some pierogi (which were my favourite), and a side dish of the cold ramen (so tasty!!). I ordered 8x pierogi and 4x Asian veg, but I think we mistakenly ended up with 8 of each. Along with the side dish it was very filling for 2 people.
Read moreThe dumplings had delicious fillings and toppings, and I loved how the pastry had been lightly fried to give it a nice brown crisp on the bottom.
Prices are geared for tourists which makes sense, but it was well worth it.

Amazing flavours, friendly atmosphere. Vegan and carne options with sensitivity to not cross contaminate the vegan options with meat options.

Yummy - Edit
Delicious dumplings and pierogi. There’s only one vegan option of each one so it’s very easy to order. The place is very small but you can sit there or take the dumplings to the beach (don’t forget the chili sauce!😍)

Very happy gal - Edit
To say I was a happy gal to find this place in SJDS is an understatement. I’ve been missing dumplings so much!! I tried both the “Asian” vege and tofu dumpling and the “European” potato pierogi dumpling. Both were out of this world! The size for one was amazing and the toppings and sauce options made the dumplings that extra bit special. I loved the dill, parsley, mayo and chilli oil combination on the pierogi 🤤 We went twice while in Nicaragua! Fully recommend if you are missing those Asian flavours while travelling.

Fantastic dumplings! - Edit
This is only a 4* because I'm not allowed to give it 5*! 2 non-vegan options, 2 vegan options (1 is veggie by default but sauce can be swapped to vegan). Clearly marked and vegan dumplings are cooked in a visibly separate pan. We tried both types of vegan and both were fantastic! Nice balance of flavours with all the toppings. Small place if you want to sit in - only 5 seats or so. We took away - extra c$10 for a box. You can also buy bags of frozen dumplings! Price is obviously on the higher end of nica but nice to have something a bit different! Lovely staff and quick service, would definitely recommend.
Read moreEdit: We came back and it was just as good! Bought our own takeaway containers and they were happy to fill them instead of takeaway boxes.

Tasty dumplings - good vegan sauces - Edit
Very tasty! Tofu and veg and potato pierogi were the two vegan options when we went. Good sauces. Make sure you specify vegan so they put the right sauces on. They definitely know what vegan is and will hook you up.
