What's better than dumplings made fresh on the spot. At Lisa's Dumplings inside the Turnstyle Market at Columbus Circle you can actually watch as each dumpling is filled by hand right before your eyes. It's worth ordering a batch whether you are eating at a nearby table or on the go. The dumplings (steamed or fried) come with a variety of fillings ranging from tradition pork with Chinese cabbage to pork & sauerkraut; chicken & green pepper; egg, shrimp & chives; and beef with onion. Veggie versions are also available.
