"I learned that a lease has been signed to bring Paradise Dynasty into the former Din Tai Fung space at the Americana at Brand, marking the brand’s first Los Angeles location after its U.S. debut at South Coast Plaza. Known for its multi-colored xiao long bao soup dumplings and other colorful dishes, Paradise Dynasty has become a big, bold new kid on the dumpling block across much of Asia. The plan calls for a full rebrand of the roughly 8,000‑square‑foot space with more patio room and room for a smaller outpost of sister concept Le Shrimp Noodle Bar; the Paradise Group’s CEO said they’re excited to bring their soup dumplings to LA alongside an array of northern and southern Chinese cuisine, with a targeted opening in summer 2024." - Farley Elliott
