"There may come a time when you need a dumpling. It may be an inopportune time, like when you live in Bushwick, have spent all Saturday in bed, and cannot imagine getting on a train to go to Sanmiwago. But now you have Formosa, a Taiwanese dumpling destination on Evergreen Ave., which looks like your friend’s living room (your friend who’s really good at rehoming stooped furniture), and which sells a plate of eight pork dumplings doused in crunchy chili oil for $12. They also have popcorn chicken and lu rou fan with tender braised pork, and will be adding beer and wine. Peel yourself out of bed, don your coziest sweatsuit and head over for a satisfying, low-key hang." - Will Hartman, Willa Moore, Neha Talreja, Sonal Shah, Tiffany Yannetta
