Rickshaw Dumpling Kiosk Is Open Times Square

The finishing touches for the Rickshaw Dumpling kiosk in Times Square are happening now, but they are open for business! The menu should be pretty familiar to Midtown Lunch’ers, offering four regular dumpling options: the three varieties that the trucks have for $6.00 (classic pork, chicken & Thai basil and vegetarian edamame), plus Peking duck dumplings ($6.50). Standard sides are $3.00 each (chili sesame noodle salad, miso mini soup, crunchy Asian salad and chillin edamame). After they’ve mastered dumplings at the kiosk, they plan to start offering steamed buns as well.

The kiosk will open for lunch everyday at 11 a.m., but interestingly, an employee I spoke with said they’re also considering breakfast bun options in the future. Now that’s something I can truly get behind!

Gringo dumplings. Their dumplings are so bad. It blows my mind how they remain in business.

    I’ve never understood my MTL gives such huge coverage to this business when MTL’ers have all but unanimously declared their hatred/disdain for it. *shrug*

I am going to risk the wrath, but I actually like them. I think they are ridiculously expensive. I can get 5 or 6 dumplings for $1 in CTown. But this is not CTown though. Other than the price, I think they are overhyped, but I enjoy them. Sorry y’all. I know everyone reading this site hates on them

  Right Bob, because if someone likes what you do not, they are ignorant. What a load of horseshit.

Hey if they bring back the Egg and Chinese sausage bun I’ve been craving since Mantao went out of business, I’m in.
