"Lin is from the same team as Qi, but despite the half-mile proximity and the significant menu overlap, the two places feel worlds apart. Part of that is probably the old, remodeled house that Lin is set in, which adds a sense of crowded intimacy to the experience. During dinner, you’ll be able to order from a menu of about a dozen different dumplings, baos, and egg rolls, but on the weekends during brunch that expands to about 30+ options. Soup dumplings should definitely be a part of your order, and if you’re feeling especially adventurous, you can order a giant soup dumpling that’s about the size of four normal ones. Just keep in mind that dim sum here—dumplings in particular—comes at a hefty Clarksville premium." - nicolai mccrary
