szechuan dumplings

Making a quick trip to NYC that needs to include szechuan dumplings!
Haven't found anything like them since moving to Philly.

By szechuan dumplings you mean the ones covered with a hot chili oil/ soy / sesame sauce?

If "the Rouge" is correct in assuming you mean Dumplings covered in Sesame Sauce.....

I've only found these one place in Manhattan.
There's a Chinese restaurant on the Northeast corner of 95th and Columbus who has these on their menu.

I had never even heard of them until my aunt (who lives in the neighborhood) ordered them for me.

They're definitely not the traditional steamed or Fried Dumplings you'll get at Tasty-Dumpling or other places downtown....as they're smothered in sauce.....but they are GOOD.

Wrong! Oriental Noodle Shop on East 45th Street has these, and they're delicious. In fact, that's where I'm heading!

Go to Mama Buddha on 11st and hudson, they have very tasty szechuan dumplings that come drenched in sauce and are steamed to perfection

S. Dynasty 511 Lexington Ave., 2FL (48th St.), has the most amazing dumplings in hot oil I have ever had. I believe it has a sesame or peanut base. I live in Brooklyn and I fantasize about this place. Great food.

You can get them at most szechuan restaurants. Grand Szechuan has them: wontons in spicy oil. Not dumplings per se.

There have been a number of dumpling threads recently. The Dumpling House gets high marks from many people, me included. (See the thread below).

The dumplings are freshly made and excellent. 5 for $1. A great deal and very tasty.
