18 Best Restaurants in Charlotte, North Carolina | Eater Carolinas
"Fast-casual Dumpling Lady, which started as a food truck in 2016, now has three locations in Optimist Hall, South End, and Uptown. The dizzying dan dan noodles and pork and chive dumplings represent this spot’s desire to stay loyal to traditional, non-Americanized Szechuan cuisine. The wontons and dumplings are like silk, until the heat kicks in, and suddenly, it’s silken molten lava, and eaters are back in their bodies. Expect the items to be draped in sesame, scallion, or chili oil — it may be messy, but it will be worth it. Pro tip: The South End location is open late on weekends for those late-night cravings. Another pro tip: Follow the Dumpling Lady’s Instagram for homemade recipe videos." - Kayleigh Ruller
