Xiao Le Tian Dumpling

Xiao Le Tian Dumpling is an old noodle shop in Xinyi District, Taipei, serving pork dumplings and beef noodle soup. The pork and chive boiled dumplings are packed full, and the pan-fried dumplings are cooked until the thick wrappers are golden brown, with whole garlic available to take yourself. Staff take orders verbally, side dishes and condiments are self-service, and tables are cleared quickly. The staff are loud, and small flies hover around the tables, so hygiene needs attention.
