Good morning.

I’ve never had pan-fried dumplings made this way before (see below), but it was delicious and I definitely will be getting some again. Are you a steamed or pan-fried dumplings type of person? Both? I wouldn’t be able to choose, personally.

Some dumplings I had today from a spot called Shaxian Delicacies in the Chinese Quarter 👌🏼👌🏼
