A downtown cheap food standby for at least a few years, this noodle and dumpling restaurant serves up one of the tastiest $3 snacks in town. It's located on the downtown mall in Yorktown place, one store front away from Christian's Pizza, which has the cheapest, best tummy filler in town, a $2 slice of cheese with oregano and hot pepper flakes.
The only thing I've ever ordered are the pork dumpling which are provided in a sweet and spicy soy-based sauce. The sauce is incredible and overpowers the dumplings: the combination is heavenly. The health benefits of these seven fried wonders are less clear than their perfect taste.
The place is small but has plenty of seating for its size. Sitting on one of the stools facing the window offers great people watching.

Marco & Luca's is my regular post-yoga meal. They're fast and open on Sundays, when Rev Soup and a few others are closed. As a vegetarian, I've never had their pork dumplings, but I can attest to the awesome power of their steamed veggie buns & sesame noodles. Nom.
