| - Very nice, friendly dumpling house in Chinatown area with refreshingly straightforward menu (listed on the wall, on a giant poster for easy reference) and simple, non-garish interior. Open late until 2am, which is perfect for late night food hunters who are looking to eat dumplings and other related Chinese food. The xlb here is good and juicy with decent skin thickness, and I would recommend that here. They have a variety of different types of dumplings and filling, ranging from combinations of ground pork, cabbage, shrimp, beef, and lamb. I stayed with the traditional pork and cabbage pan fried dumplings and was not disappointed. It's very authentic here and the young owners appear to have come here from mainland China or Taiwan, so I'm assuming they know what their food should taste like. Inside is also a full on milk tea boba juice bar, which could be a whole store in itself judging by the selections.
Fat Dumpling is located in the heart of Chinatown along Spring Mountain Rd in a shopping center with other late night restaurants. Good place, I hope they do well.
