"A tucked-away dumpling spot that produces compulsively delicious dumplings and inspires a choose-your-own-dumpling experience—Northern Chinese fried dumplings, steamed vegetarian parcels, and Shanghai-style xiao long bao—best enjoyed with plenty of black vinegar, spicy cucumber salad, and a cold Tsingtao; patrons have been known to eat them in the car because they’re that irresistible." - ByMehdi Brunet-Benkritly, as told to Mia Leimkuhler
