Founded in 1963, Cheng-Gong Pot-Stickers was established by first-generation master Chen Yun-nan; it is now run by the second generation. The shop’s signature fragrant egg-battered pot-stickers are the runaway favorite: the wrappers are chewy and the filling generous. Just before serving, beaten egg is poured in, so one bite reveals the layered, springy handmade skin and fully cooked, juicy, sweet filling—so hot it may scorch your tongue, yet you’ll swallow it without hesitation. Besides these star pot-stickers, the menu offers many Shandong-infused entrées—tender, flavorful, and ample—each dish a must-try. Simply put, they’re so delicious words fail!
