Chinatown’s classic Shanghai-style destination, Dim Sum Garden, sells gluten-free versions of several of its dumplings either cooked or frozen to go, including crystal vegetable dumplings and spicy shrimp dumplings, with gluten-free dipping sauce upon request. All of the ho fun, mei fun noodles, and rice stir-fries can be made on-site gluten free.
