ISO Peanut Buttery Wontons

I used to get these all the time at Chinese places in the South, yet I cannot seem to find them up here. Not sure what they're called -- but they're essentially wontons in a thick, spicy, peanut-y sauce. So addictive and delicious. I miss them!

    If you're in the MetroWest area - specifically Natick, Mandarin Cafe on Wethersfield Rd (just off Rt 9 westbound) has them. It's on the app menu as "Mandarin Dumplings".

    We get them now and then - strictly take-out though. They have a couple of tables, but I can't recall ever seeing anyone eating in.

      Ma Soba on Cambridge Street in Beacon Hill used to have them but I haven't been there in about 5 years. And they were tasty!

        Bernard's at the chestnut hill mall has them. so ridiculously good eventhough there's zero chance their Chinese. but delicious.

          I just saw them on the menu at Formosa Taipei in Lexington. I was tempted, but went for the fried dumplings instead. Next time...

          Off topic, but their spicy sole filets are delicious.
