Pandan Room (Hackettstown, NJ)


Pandan Room is my go to Thai restaurant, and I always go curry FYI. But today in addition to my curry, I had to get some dumplings. Obviously, these are pork. I wish they were fried, but these we re bonus dumplings so cant complain. The sauce was much more thai inspired than the usual Chinese restaurant sauce and had a bit more sweetness.

Aside from the outside not having that amazing crisp from a hot smoking wok, the dough was pretty spot on. Not to much. The filling was tasty as well, again a little more spice, because thats how Thai does it. I think I have never been to Thailand, but I have eaten my fair share of dumplings.

Being bonus dumplings and not expecting to even have them when I went to go get Thai, they were pretty good.

Middle of the road dumpling. Throw on a few more on that boat plate for me and we'll chat again Pandan Room.
