SOUP DUMPLINGS
Joe’s Shanghai!! There has been a line every time I have gone and now I know to go in and get a number instead of standing outside for ever and ever. Soup Dumplings are the obvious dish to order. I also recommend the Garlic Baby Bok Choy.
The Soup Dumplings are just that. Pork or Crab dumplings with soup inside of them. I like to add some hot chili oil from the table into the soy sauce dipping bowls that come with the dumplings. Technique can be tricky as they are hot when they come out and filled with soup. Placing inside the spoon and then using the other hand to hold them in place with chopsticks while you bite off the top and suck the soup out until you can just throw the whole thing in your mouth is the way to go.
All of their other dishes are also good, but $4.50 per serving of 8 or so Soup Dumplings is hard to beat.
