The Best Chinese Restaurants in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"Prince Dumpling is known locally as the “Din Tai Fung dupe.” Prices are slightly lower than the soup dumpling giant’s with usually no waits and more menu variety. The restaurant even has an open kitchen where workers wrap fresh soup dumplings just like at Din Tai Fung. Although the soup dumpling skins are not quite as thin as Din Tai Fung’s, they are otherwise comparable. In addition to the ones filled with kurobuta pork, Prince also offers chicken and lobster xiao long bao, along with wontons, pan-fried dumplings, and boiled dumplings. Other entrees include popcorn chicken, crispy radish, beef rolls, abalone noodles, and many vegetarian options," - Kristie Hang
