Tong Dumpling Pot #2 in Milpitas report w/ pics - Recommended!
Went to Tong Dumpling Pot in Milpitas, this is restaurant #2. It on Dixon Landing Rd just past Milpitas Blvd - past McDonald's up the street, On the Left-hand Strip Mall (NOT in Lion's Shopping ctr). Original location: 6184 Bollinger Rd, SJ 95129.
They made FRESH DUMPLINGS right by the register. That's pretty cool.
Lunch Special Mon-Fri - $6.95 is One order of dumplings (12 pcs) + One Side Dish & Hot Sour Soup! It's a lot of food & cheap.
I got A1. Three Deluxe (pork, chive, shrimp) dumplings. I liked them alot. Steamed was good, didn't try the fried version which is 30c more. Hot & Sour Soup just ok for me. Side - I picked soybeans. Fine.
M. got Beef w/ green onion dumplings & enjoyed them. Side - he picked peanuts. I thought they were fine. He liked the soup too. $6.95.
