Pork Dumpling Jaffle

Kicked off the day with a pre-walk jaffle at Cavalier 1.0 before doing the Spit to Manly with a few friends. And not just any jaffle—this one’s been on my radar for a while.

Bit of a full-circle moment too—my very first sandwich post (No. 001!) was from here. 372 sandwiches later, I’m back again.

The pork dumpling jaffle was warm, crunchy, and perfect for a cold winter morning. Lighter than most jaffles—no gooey cheese or heavy sauces—just tasty, dumpling-inspired filling packed with pork and cabbage. The side of chilli oil and black vinegar took it to the next level. Chilli had a gentle kick, and the vinegar gave it that familiar dumpling tang—just wrapped up in golden toasted bread.

So good. Kinda like a dumpling, but with a crunch. Very interesting, to say the least—and in the best way. Glad I finally got around to this one.
