Peking Ravioli in DFW?

Does any Chinese restaurant in the area do Joyce Chen style peking raviolis? I get my fix when I visit my family in the Boston area, but it would be nice not to have to travel so far!

    I went to Royal China last night and tried all the dumplings on the menu! The Beijing X'ien Binn were about as close as I'm gonna find to the Peking Ravioli/Guotie I've been looking for. Thanks so much for the replies! I've still got to try Chef Hsu's at Super H Mart. The grocery stores to which LewisvilleHounder referred probably have better selection of frozen dumpling than T.N.L. Superfoods (the Asian grocery store in Irving closest to me), right?

      TNL is terrible even for Vietnamese which is what it specializes in. If you are looking for a nice clean store and not blow you out of your socks smelly with fish (a very bad sign) then shop at either Super H Mart, Asia World in Plano or 99 Ranch in Plano. All of those stores are heavily travelled and well kept. I want to say Asia World and Super H Mart have the better of the frozen selection but if you are looking low cost and clean seafood try 99 Ranch.

      I have seen Sichuan ravioli at Little Sichuan and Sichuanese for sure, not sure about Royal Sichuan. These are more akin to the fresh Italian ravioli with a fresh noodle sheet stuffed with minced pork and in a broth (usually chili oil based)

      But you are actually looking for potstickers and those are available at the dumpling place run by Chef Hsu at Super H Mart in Carrollton and at Jeng Chi in Richardson. You might try some Japanese places around town.

      Also it might be worth travelling up to Carollton for Super H Mart or one of the stores in Richardson or Plano to buy bag of your favorite variety of frozen dumpling and shallowing frying it at home.

        Possibly, Royal China in the N/E corner of Preston Royal. The food is excellent. With lots of, made from scratch noodle and dumpling dishes. They're known for it.
