Dumpling Showdown in Santa Fe! 🥟🔥
Spent one day in Santa Fe and ended up having dumplings at two different spots — maybe it’s because I hadn’t had Chinese food in days! 😋 🥢 Dumpling Tea Great prices and even better flavors! Their braised pork rice totally surprised me — didn’t expect such delicious rice at a dumpling spot! 🙌 Pan-fried buns were also crispy and juicy. Highly satisfied! 🥢 Zeng (last two photos) Their portions seemed a bit smaller — maybe because it was dinnertime and busy? The pan-fried dumplings looked… barely fried 😅, and the hand-pulled noodles tasted more like store-bought stir-fry noodles. But the flavor was still okay, and their chili sauce was the real star — took me right back to my childhood! 🌶️❤️ Overall: Dumpling Tea won my heart (and stomach!), but Zeng’s chili sauce brought the nostalgia. Have you tried either of these spots? Which one’s your go-to? #Santa Fe #Dumplings #NewMexicoEats #ChineseFood #FoodReview #USATravel 🥡
