Asian tapas · Portobello, Dublin
Ne Zha defied the heavens to write his own story. We cook the same way — classics kept whole, then quietly sharpened. Handmade dumplings, Sichuan heat, small plates built for sharing.
Our name
We gently reimagine the classics thoughtful, balanced, deeply respectful of where the cuisine came from.
Crafted with precision and designed for sharing. Made for intimate dinners, gatherings, slow afternoons.
From handcrafted dumplings to delicate sauces. We don't rush the process we let the flavours speak.
