"There are many reasons we love this Parkside dim sum spot: the siu mai overflowing with pork and shrimp, and the meaty xiao long bao, which is one of the best versions in the city. But the very big reason is Dumpling Kitchen’s pan-fried pork buns. They’re wrapped in a thick dough before being steamed, pan-fried, and then sprinkled with sesame seeds and scallions—simple perfection." - julia chen 1, lani conway
