North Dumpling – Chinese
Clouds of steam rise from bubbling vats in this bustling, flour-dusted kitchen, where nimble hands expertly pleat paper-thin dough around savory, ginger-scented fillings. Each bite offers a masterclass in texture, from the satisfying crunch of golden, pan-seared bottoms to the succulent burst of juice within, all elevated by the sharp tang of black vinegar and the lingering heat of house-made chili oil.
