The Flying Dumpling

Frequenting the local takeout spot in college is an essential experience. The Flying Dumpling, a Chinese restaurant on the University of Houston campus, dependably fills that niche. The portions are huge, delicious, and will satisfy the nostalgic craving you have for American Chinese classics. The fat egg rolls are stuffed with cabbage, the lo mein is utilitarian and delicious, and the giant stuffed baos are a meal in themselves. Feed yourself or a group on the cheap, or stock up for a few days of leftovers during finals week.
