100 BEST ’18: DRY AGED BEEF POTSTICKERS at EAST WIND SNACK SHOP

I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2018…

28 Day dry aged beef inside a potsticker?? Who ever heard of such a thing at a small casual take out spot like East Wind Snack Shop? The preparation truly makes a difference in terms of flavor. The meat has a strong rich beefy flavor that lingers – a rarity in the cheap eats world. It’s mind bogglingly juicy and each purse is truly a revelation. Price: $7
