Our take: DING TE LE is primarily known for its Sheng Jian Bao, which many consider a standout for its crispy exterior and flavourful, juicy filling.
Reviewers consistently highlight the soup within the dumpling as a key feature, with some noting a distinct sweetness that aligns with Shanghainese culinary traditions.
While the Sheng Jian Bao receives high praise, other dishes have a more mixed reception.
The fried pork chop, for example, is described as both 'a bit too crispy' and 'dry and hard' by different patrons.
Similarly, the wanton noodles are noted for being 'quite plain' or having 'thick and rubbery' skin, though the small wantons in soup are generally well-received.
We think it's worth focusing on their signature pan-fried dumplings, especially the Sheng Jian Bao, which seems to be their strongest offering.
The lunch sets are mentioned as good value.
We'd recommend managing expectations for other menu items and prioritising the Sheng Jian Bao.
Best for a focused visit to enjoy their specialty dumplings.
