"Reasons to drive to South Jersey include cheaper gas and not having to pump it, cheaper wine, the shore, and the soup dumplings and buns at Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao. Sure, the Shanghainese mini-chain makes flaky scallion pancakes and tripe in a spicy chili sauce. But it’s the dumplings and buns that have us considering moving across the bridge. When you want range, order the colorful “Lucky 6,” which comes with dumplings filled with things like black truffle, scallop, and chicken. They also have a separate dim sum menu for breakfast, and some doughy red bean buns and durian puffs that are worth the toll." - candis mclean
