Papa Dumpz


My craving for dim sum was satisfied thanks to Papa Dumpz, a family owned and operated business that operates primarily by social media (Instagram: @papa_dumpz).

Preorders are accepted via DM on Instagram, and meet ups are in town on Tuesdays and Sundays.

They have a limited menu of steamed and deep fried dim sum items, including traditional favorites like shumai, har gao, pork & chive dumplings, custard buns, fried shrimp dumplings, and jian duis (custard and red bean).

I placed an order for pick up on a Sunday and they arrived promptly at the time promised. The dim sum was nicely presented and the taste was outstanding.

I like really like the wrappers that they use for the steamed dim sum - they're on the thinner side, but just thick enough to hold the fillings.  Each piece of dim sum is filled with a generous portion of filling.

The fried shrimp was still crispy when I got home, 45 minutes later.



The custard jian dui was calling my name and it did not disappoint.




 Let the buyer beware - I do not know where Papa Dumpz prepares their dim sum (i.e. whether they utilize a DOH-inspected kitchen).  Therefore, order and consume at your own risk. I will say that I do plan to order from them again!
