“Tasty Dumpling, while maybe not the best of all the cheap dumpling spots, is right across the street from Columbus park and you can get a carton of dumplings and sit in the park and watch some dudes play traditional Chinese music and it’s magic.”

“They were correct. Lots of shrooms and tofu and egg, nice thick starchy broth. The fried dumplings were better than the boiled ones I had last time I was there, pretty basic thick-skinned dealies, not standout compared to some other Chinatown places. I'd definitely come back for the soup alone, though.”

replying to u/kbpkbp: Sanmiwago, Jin Mei, and Tasty Dumpling.
“the other two suggestions are trash..... I live right next to Jinmei. I try them every few years but they never change. They put almost 0 filling in their dumpling, super thick skin. Tasty Dumpling uses very fatty meat in their filling”

replying to u/fearingdragon: I really like Tasty Dumpling on Mulberry. Probably my favorite. I think it's something like $16 for 50, not too much more Fried Dumpling, around the corner, is one of the cheapest in Chinatown I think. But the wrappers are a bit thin for me

replying to u/Minelayer: Were any of you buying frozen dumplings in Manhattan‘s chinatown in the ‘90’s? There was a brand that came in a plastic bag and the label was inside and only a piece of paper. They had like 30 or 50 a bag and they were like $8 or maybe $10. There were the best, but I can’t find them anymore. Does this ring a bell for anyone? I could get them at Kam Kuo next to the Wo Hop (s) on Mott.
“Also, their dough is quite thick and filling abit sparse.”

replying to u/crazeman: **TLDR:** If you want boiled/steamed dumplings, go for Shu Jiao Fu Zhou. If you want pan fried dumplings, King Dumpling gets my vote for most bang for the buck. If you're specifically looking for frozen dumplings, all the dollar shops will sell bags of frozen dumplings. I want to specifically highlight [Bo Hai Dumpling Town](https://www.yelp.com/biz/bo-hai-dumpling-town-new-york) because I think they're a great spot in LES. They have a pretty good variety of home made dumplings for sale and they have stuff like wontons and soup dumplings as well. They ONLY sell frozen goods, nothing hot/fresh. \--- **My rant:** Do a "dollar" dumpling tour in Chinatown. There's literally an area that has like 4 dollar dumpling places within a 3-4 block radius. You definitely want to bring a friend. I tried doing it earlier this year alone and I THOUGHT I could hit up like 3-4 in a day but I was absolutely stuffed by the 2nd spot each time because I went alone lol. I included the general price for each spot but they're literally cheap dumplings. Even when it's "more expensive", it's like 50 cents more so it's just me being grimey and being true to the spirit of "cheap dumplings". The best part about doing the tour is that after you figure out your favorite dumpling spot, you can go back and just buy a giant bag of their frozen dumplings. You stick the bag in your freezer and you can make the same quality of pan fried dumplings at home whenever you feel like it. IMO making it at home…

replying to u/EatThisNY: Highly recommend both Shu Jiao Fu Zhou and Sanmiwago (although they are a bit more expensive). Also, check out Tasty Dumpling. The lady at Fried Dumpling fries and then steams the dumplings so they are a bit of both.
