Shrimp and chive dumplings

Nom Wah Tea Parlor is one of those little gems in New York City that most people dont know about but they're always busy with locals and regulars.  They are an institution in China Town and have been around since 1920 which means that they're doing something right!  We try to go there about once a month for our dumpling cravings and always leave stuffed and happy.

Below are our absolute favorites which we've narrowed down over the years.
