"The team behind dumpling all-stars Dumpling Home is on a quest to spread the word about their miraculously sheer, broth-packed xiao long bao—there are now four related restaurants across SF and the East Bay. Dumpling Hours in Oakland’s Lakeshore is the latest edition, and cranks out a variety of perfect steamed, boiled, and pan-fried pouches made to order. The menu's long, but we'll make things easy: order the pork soup dumplings and pork buns, paired with the crispiest cucumber salad around. This casual place (no reservations taken) is the answer to any call for a no-fuss, dough-fueled meal." - Lani Conway
