Kingdom of Dumpling

1713 Taraval St
San Francisco, CA 94116

Occasion: We stayed in and had an early dinner, but by 8:30pm we were hungry again.  In our sweatfits, we came back here for some northern Chinese food. 12.03.11

 Pork and spinach dumplings
We loved them so much last week, we came back for more.  They come in a plate of 12 and its definitely not enough.  They're juicy, delicious and flavorful made with skin that's not as thin as XLBs but not as thick as potstickers. They're a bite of goodness!
Chow Mein
We were actually trying to order the Chow fun (flat rice noodle), but since they were out of the noodle we decided on the next best thing: chow mein.  This was surprisingly really really good.  Almost reminds me of my favorite chow mein place on stockton and jackson in Chinatown, but better!  The noodles taste a lot more fresh and it's less greasy.  Delicious and satisfied. Yum!
Chives pancake
Last time we had the scallion pancakes, so this time we decided something different.  So glad we did because these little pockets filled with chives, fried egg and clear noodles are freaking delicious.  The dough component of this dish is fried to the perfect crisp, yet still has a chewy consistency.  Next time, I'm definitely getting this again. One of my new favorites.
Xiao Long Baos
Perfect amount for just the two of us.  We liked it so much we ordered it again.
