The Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week: December 15 | Eater LA

"Despite growing up in Arcadia, where the very first U.S. location opened in 2000, I was always a bit of a skeptic — but I see the appeal now. The new spaces feel elaborate and extravagant, and the dumplings are expertly folded with delicate skin that gives way to piping hot pork broth. While the famed xiao long bao is a draw, the Shanghai-style pork ribs are some of the best I’ve ever had: super tender meat, a sauce that walks a tightrope between sweet and tangy, and bones that are fun to clean before going in for another bite. I even save the sauce to pour onto an order of garlic green beans. Come for the xiao long bao, stay for the ribs." - Eater Staff
