Today Food - Review - Chinatown - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"Today Food isn’t doing anything out of the ordinary with their three styles of dumplings, but that’s what we love about this tiny Shanghainese restaurant in Chinatown. Potstickers, boiled versions, and soup dumplings are all made daily by a duo of window-side chefs moving fast enough to break the sound barrier. Each thin, chewy wrapper fits a mound of juicy pork, shrimp, or chicken fillings like a tailored suit, and then gets pan-fried, boiled, or drowned in broth to order. Just make sure to dunk yours in the soy sauce and black vinegar at every table, and stock up on whatever’s in the shop’s freezer to avoid any dumpling dry spell." - Patrick Wong
