"While you patiently wait for Din Tai Fung to open (the lights are already on), you can get your xiao long bao fix at Yeh’s Bao, which is run by an alum of the famous dumpling chain. The restaurant is in FiDi, and has things like Chinese yams with wood ear mushrooms and black vinegar, alongside a flurry of dumplings, wontons, soups, and noodles." - will hartman
