Menu Reveal for our up coming *Mahjong Singles Night* on the 26th May and Q***r edition on the 2nd June
We’re very excited to be hosting the world’s first ever (as far as we know) Mahjong Singles Night - a kind of speed dating over the Mahjong tiles, where you’ll get to meet everyone in the room and play Mahjong with them at least once during the evening.
Our Dumpling Queen Chef Noi will be masterminding a delicious 3 course Thai feast to finish up the event so you can seek out that special smile you met across the tiles and share dinner with them afterwards!
This genuinely is a once in a lifetime opportunity and tickets are selling fast - so please share on to anyone who might be interested in the sweetest version of speed dating you’ve ever seen!!

Thank you so much to all the lovely people who have bought tickets to MNTD X Marie Mitchell, and we’re sorry to change the date but we had people in the DMs (and the odd whatsapp chat), asking for a vegetarian menu and we thought it would be rude not to listen. So we’re moving the most delicious collaboration up, and that’s also giving Marie the chance to work on a completely new welcome cocktail too! Mango seed syrup you say, yes please - summer in a glass!
Vegetarian/Vegan menu to be announced soon.
Grab your tickets from the link in bio and we’ll see you in July!

Thank you Mr Tengu for a wonderful and educational evening teaching us all about the wonders of Sake!
The first time we met Mr Tengu - probably around 10 years ago now, from way back in our popup days. We met him at one of his marvellous Sake pairing events, and asked him if he could sell us his Sake - that he sources from independent brewers across Japan.
He invited us to his house at 10 in the morning, where we probably tried a little too much Sake for that time of the day 😂
Whilst on our way home on the train with two boxes of sake that he had given us to try, we knew right then that this would be a great and long term relationship:)
Now 10 years on he’s still sourcing the best Sakes from around Japan, and we’re still drinking them!
For those of you who missed out- hopefully Oli will be joining us again at some point soon, sharing his vast knowledge of sake- paired with a bite from us 😁
Thanks again Oli! And hope to see again you soon
🙏🙌🍶🥟

What people say
If you're a fan of dim sum restaurants, then my neighbours the dumplings in Lower Clapton Road, London is definitely worth checking out. This family-run dumpling house and sake bar takes a home-cooked approach to their dishes, using only the freshest ingredients that they can get their hands on. From steamed and crispy fried dumplings to Beijing-style ones, there's something for everyone here.
What sets my neighbours the dumplings apart from other dim sum restaurants is their commitment to making everything from scratch. From the dumpling skins to the sauces you dip them in, everything is made fresh on site. And it shows in the taste - each dish bursts with flavor and authenticity.
But it's not just about the dumplings at this restaurant. Head Chef Marc Marayag works alongside Master Dumpling Chef Carol Lee to create a menu that complements their signature dish. You'll find everything from steamed fish to crunchy pork belly and mock tea leaf salad on offer here.
And let's not forget about the drinks! My neighbours the dumplings has a selection of specially made cocktails and favorite sakes that pair perfectly with their dishes.
Overall, my neighbours the dumplings offers a unique take on traditional dim sum dining. With its focus on quality ingredients and homemade dishes, it's no wonder why this restaurant has become a favorite among locals and visitors alike.
