Castro, San Francisco ยท restaurant
A dim sum and Sichuan restaurant in the Castro where pan-fried potstickers with crispy-chewy skins anchor the order alongside har gow, Shanghai dumplings, and the house specialty: sweet rice stuffed with shrimp sausage and egg in lotus leaves. Salt-baked shrimp and dry-fried green beans are the ones regulars add without looking at the menu.
