Zhu Jiao Description

Zhu Jiao, or ‘cooking dumplings’ in English, dishes out distinct dumpling variants, including an eggplant version in a purple wrapper and a green-skinned cucumber variety. The restaurant’s unembellished menu also includes several typical Northern-style appetizers to prep your stomach for a session of dumpling devouring. Low-profile and cheaply decorated, the family-run shop sells dumplings at reasonable prices. Diners are also able to prepare their own dipping sauce at Zhu Jiao’s condiment stall, which offers cilantro, a sesame sauce, smashed garlic and chili peppers, among various others.
