Slurp
Soup dumplings – Shanghai pork and crab buns assembled with a semi-solid gelatin that with steaming liquifies into broth – are always worth the long subway ride to Chinatown on a weekend afternoon.Nibble and slurp is the correct etiquette for inhaling these incredible delicacies. The best are at Joe's Shanghai on Pell, or Joe's Ginger on Mott, a short walk from the nearby courthouses, they are a singular highlight of jury duty. Even the Resistant Epicure will forgo his table manners to fight over the last dumpling.
