Pillowy, warming, indulgent, and...delicious! Rather than imagine your favorite blanket, think Drunken Dumpling, a Zagat-acclaimed East Village hotspot renowned for their hand-made "soup dumplings with an expert's touch" according to The New York Times, the Instagram-famous multi-colored dumplings, and bowl-sized XL Xiao Long Bao.
Grab your $29 pulse (a $46 value) for a delightful Dinner for Two, that includes 1 Order Of Soup Dumplings, 1 Order Of Pot Stickers, 1 Order Of Buns, and 2 Beers or Sodas.
Alongside her son, Yuan Lee, Chef Qihui Guan (a former mathematics professor and alum of beloved Joe's Shanghai) dexterously assembles delicately dough'd concoctions - a true testament to the familial vibes you get from the moment you enter the cozy interiors.
Made-from-scratch Pork Soup Dumplings, Beef Buns With Brie and dazzling Green Potstickers are legendary, boasting velvety dough stuffed with fresh, organic meat, seafood, and luscious broth simmered for 6 to 8 hours each day, served amidst rustic wooden tables and a strong craft beer list (Montauk, Lagunitas, & more) - a match made in gourmand heaven.
Authentic, modern, and an all-around delight for the senses, Drunken Dumpling is nothing short of addictive...
Whether you've read about them in Eater, TIme Out, and Thrillist, or heard the buzz surrounding the trendsetting restaurant in the East Village, Drunken Dumpling is made with love by the mother-son duo that is Chef Qihui Guan & restauranteur Yuan Lee.
Chef Guan and her team make each creation by hand in the open kitchen, using locally farmed meats, veggies, and heirloom recipes handed down through generations.
The real showstopper is the Xiao Long Bao Soup Dumpling; try the Crab Soup Dumpling filled with Chilean crab meat and savory morsels of pork, among other interpretations.
Inherently comfort food, Pot Stickers are stuffed with whimsical shrimp, bacon, & orange, and pan-fried for a crisp, golden finish. Not to mention the naturally colored and uber-photogenic pink, orange, red, and green versions that are as visually stunning as they are flavorful.
A selection of craft brews will round out this heart feast, where, from the first bite, you'll soon discover what the hubbub is all about...
All selections will be made from the restaurant's full dinner menu.
