the dumplings are better (and more expensive) than the Eldridge Street original, plus the 14th Street location includes bubble tea, buns, and teriyaki rice combo plates. We had a delicious honey ginger bubble tea with fresh slices of ginger--yum--and a steamed veggie bun and sweetened red bean paste bun to split (both great). The 14th street dumplings have green wrappers and have a more flavorful and fresh filling. I tasted ginger and the greens were vibrant and tasty. More mushrooms in the mix as well, I believe they were shiatake. All around, I was very pleased, even though they upped the price from $2 to $4.49 for 8 (big percentage-wise, but really not a big deal) dumplings. It's located on the south side of the street at 220 14th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues.
