Where to Eat in NYC, According to Chef Ed Szymanski

"Wu’s Wonton King has only been around nearly a decade or so, but it feels like an institution. It’s one of my favorite restaurants in NYC. My dinner order: whole fried Dungeness crab, wonton soup, sautéed pea shoots, house-style chicken, roast duck, lobster with ginger, scallion noodles, and pan-fried noodles. If they have razor clams or fresh scallops, or whatever else the owner, Derek Wu, is excited about, order it. To drink, BYOB — lots of Chenin, Riesling, Champagne, and light Jura reds. And as great as dinner is, their lunch-only dim sum might be even better." - Amelia Schwartz
