XuXu's new menu is worth a beeline to Britomart

XuXu Dumpling Bar – the Auckland eatery famed for its masterfully-mixed cocktails and mouth-watering pot-stickers – is further adding to its impressive culinary offerings. Enter, chocolate-filled steamed buns.
If steamed buns and chocolate are your idea of a good time, you're going to want to keep reading.
One of our favourite Britomart addresses, XuXu Dumpling Bar, is seriously upgrading itsalready excellent dumpling game with a bountiful new menu that features a perfect hybrid of two of our favourite hump day indulgences.
XuXu's recently revived autumn menu offerings, available from May 22, includes a plentiful line-up of chocolate steamed buns, oozing with a molten chocolate centre. To further appease to the savoury palate and joining the menu are the chicken and water chestnut wontons, served in a drunken sauce of black vinegar, chilli oil, soy and garlic.
It's safe to say we know what we'll be doing for dinner... and dessert.

We start by sharing what’s on the dish team’s radar, what we’re watching, listening to and reading. Harry Butterfield puts a twist on his Nonna’s agnolotti, Malissa Fedele reminds us of the importance of fibre, and Phoebe Holden fulfils a long-held dream, sitting down with Yotam Ottolenghi. Autumn is an abundant time, we make the most with pumpkin, kūmara, cabbage, cauliflower, feijoas, apples and pears. We’re dishing up dinners for two, including a Chicken Dumpling Lasagne, alongside easy weeknight meals. We honour our mums, revisit timeless classics, and add a little baking challenge. This issue, we encourage you to slow down, to enjoy writing your shopping list, and spending time in the kitchen. Because even when life feels relentless, there’s always space to share something delicious.
