"When you want SGV-quality dumplings without crossing east of the 110, Mason’s Dumpling Shop has your back. This all-day, order-at-the-counter spot comes from the team behind Monrovia’s Luscious Dumplings and offers a wide variety of doughy parcels, from classic xiao long bao to steamed fish dumplings. We come here for the pan-fried pork variety, which hide a garlicky wallop beneath their crisp, lacy edges. They’re great eaten when still a little too hot and dipped in a DIY sauce made at the table from soy, vinegar, and housemade chili oil." - brant cox, sylvio martins, andrew ryce, cathy park
