The restaurant is famous for its dumplings, especially the soup-filled pork ones. (They're not identified as such on the menu, so ask the server.) Above is a dish of celery - Wayne insists it was slightly pickled - with thin-cut tofu, carrots and peanuts. I'm not much of a celery fan, so the dish didn't appeal to me.
We also ordered (something like) dandan noodles, a Sichuan dish with hot and numbing peppers. Also: the leek pie and a sesame pancake stuffed with spiced pork that bore a keen resemblance to carnitas. By the time we were done with these not-so-small plates, we were unable to think about ordering more substantial dishes.
