Shrimp & snow pea leaf dumplings, soup dumplings, steamed rice roll, scallion pancakes are musts. Avoid the shrimp and bacon!

New York City's oldest and most venerated dim sum parlor given new life, home to some of the best rice rolls in Chinatown.

This 92-year-old Chinatown restaurant serves terrific dim sum in a dining room with old-school charm. This is a great place to go for a cheap and satisfying meal in Chinatown. [Eater 38 Member]

One of my new fav spots....resisted the temptation to stray away from the dumplings and just kept ordering variations of shrimp/pork house specialities. Highly recommend that strategy

Despite the amount of non-Asians, the food is surprisingly good and authentic! Get the sticky rice in lotus leaves :) (zong zhi)

Try the steamed-to-order shrimp-and-snow-pea-leaf dumplings, packed with minced shrimp, flecks of scallions and bright, fresh snow-pea leaves. It’s one of our #100best dishes and drinks of 2011.

Try the soup dumplings and get a pot of tea for $1!

Affordable dim sum, a picture menu for newbies and they close at 9 at night - what's not to like?

Support this place. Iconic. Classic. Too many old NYC establishments have been closing. Please don't let this be next.
