Well,we didn’t. In fact,we went to two restaurants for the sole purpose of trying out their soup dumplings. I remember a while back,a debate came up about who had the best soup dumplings:Joe’s Shanghai,a NYC Chinatown favorite of our’s that originated in Flushing,or Din Tai Fung,a Taiwanese restaurant that specializes in soup dumplings. At the time,we said unequivocally that Joe’s Shanghai must have the best simply by virtue that we couldn’t imagine a better tasting soup dumpling. We were wrong. Oh so very wrong. | ||
