My favourite spot for soup dumplings. Don’t forget to add chili oil and vinegar! I also highly recommend the snow pea leaf, or the Chinese broccoli in oyster sauce.

This food here is from Shaanxi, with unusual spices for Chinese cuisine – star anise, cumin, coriander, etc. The tiger salad and the spicy lamb dumpling soup are my favourites!

My favourite café in the city! I often go here for a coffee and to read a book, but it is equally nice for a drink in the evening. Very cozy with live jazz on Sunday nights.

This Nolita trattoria is pricier than some of the aforementioned, but the scallops will make you cry from sheer bliss, and the atmosphere is lovely. I also highly recommend the pâté.
