"I see the Mt. Vernon Triangle spot reinvented as a scene-y bar that pairs a handful of dim sum–style snacks with cocktails that blend French and Chinese ingredients (for example, Dolin sweet vermouth infused with smoky lapsang souchong). Chef Tim Ma compiled a straightforward menu featuring fried egg rolls, Laoban dumplings, and chicken shu mai, while general manager Margaux Donati and bar manager Jacob Simpson—who worked together at Chaplin’s and Zeppelin—run the floor and bar." - Gabe Hiatt
