Where to Find the Best Dumplings in Austin
If your extreme use of hot sauce has routinely caused looks of confusion and alarm, the Zhong Dumplings from Asia Cafe may be right up your alley. The restaurant specializes in Sichuan cuisine—which takes its name both from the Sichuan Province in China (in which the cuisine originated), as well as the fiery Sichuan chili pepper used in many of its dishes. Zhong Dumplings, sometimes referred to as Sichuan Dumplings, pack this pepper alongside pork, soy sauce, and spices for a kick sure to leave your mouth buzzing with the star chili’s signature tingling.
