Stop by this under-the-radar corner spot in Chinatown for unbelievable dumplings made with love. The dumpling noodle wrapper provides a thin yet sturdy vehicle for the assortment of fillings you can order, which are only $4 for 10. Of additional and particular note were the wheat noodles in peanut butter sauce which truly went above and beyond with their ability to successfully cling to the amazing sauce - the goal here after all isn’t noodles that swim but rather noodles that proudly wear their sauce of choice like a warm winter coat. My friend and I ordered enough for a small village and it ran us no more than $15 all together. Stock up on chili oil et accoutrements, and plop down on one of the public dining tables in the Allen Street Malls for the pinnacle of dining on a dime.
