hot communal broth in what is indeed a pot where u let some veggies and meat and mushrooms and noodles go for a swim. the best part is making your Custom Sauce to dip everything in (my personal go-to is soy sauce, shacha sauce, sesame oil, and excessive amounts of garlic and cilantro). so yummers. sometimes i think we were put on this earth to gather at circular tables and eat this. relatedly, happy lunar new year! π

a basic bitch recommendation for sure but the once a month catch up i have with a friend over a big bowl of spicy noodles and cucumber salad is something so sacred to meβ¦. the only place i know, not tainted by inflation, bad vibes or worries, is the humble noodle shop with the ten page binder menu and self-service water dispenser. splendid!

One of the easiest and most fulfilling paths to joy when you live alone in your 20s is to invite over your friends for a dumpling dinner party
1. prep the filling right before friends arrive (pork, napa cabbage, scallions)
2. gather around a large table with dumpling wrappers, little saucers of water, and parchment-lined baking sheets
3. share what's on your mind, who you've been seeing, what you've been reading, etc. while you fold dumplings into crescent moons
4. cook dumplings (boil, steam, pan-fry) and serve with black vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oil
5. rejoice over warm bellies and precious human connection
