Bridgeport

"This Bridgeport Chinese spot has a very long menu with everything from sautéed quail to orange chicken, but the reason we come here is for the Northern dumplings. Each order comes with eight dumplings filled with a balanced blend of shrimp, pork, and plenty of broth. These are similar to soup dumplings except they have a thicker, chewier wrapper and look like if your usual XLBs had a massive growth spurt. They're served hot and fresh in a large wooden basket with wafts of steam billowing out, serving as a warning signal that you should let these cool down first if you want to be able to taste anything after your first bite." - John Ringor

"Revival Food Hall continues to act as a house of ideas for restaurants trying out new concepts with the newest coming from the owners of the Duck Inn. Owner Kevin Hickey hopes crowds flock to Duck Inn Dogs, a new spot which debuted on Monday and centers around the popular wieners served at his Bridgeport restaurant. Hickey hopes to eventually open stand-alone locations after the pop-up concludes in late September." - Ashok Selvam
