Din Tai Fung is another great lunch spot. The spicy shrimp and pork wontons, la mian, and pork xiaolongbao are a must. The fried rice and pork chop are solid, and the soups are spot on. The way they operate with such consistency around the globe is amazing—no restaurant chain has accomplished what they have
