Apparently there are people who dine here without trying the mackerel dumplings. But, of course, aberrations can occur in any focus group. The superb gingery morsels come steamed or as potstickers, made using a family recipe from co-owner Meiyan Wang. But there are many other reasons it’s rare to find a spare seat at this no-frills restaurant, including squid ink dumplings and the definitive cucumber and garlic salad.
