Angry Dumpling, a restaurant that specializes in handcrafted Chinese dumplings, is anticipated to open at 142 S. Main St. in Nazareth in late November or early December.
When McCarthy and her husband, Vasa Li, founded Angry Dumpling in 2020, they first made dumplings for home delivery in an Easton industrial kitchen. They also made appearances at Lehigh Valley breweries and other establishments. The restaurant in Nazareth will be Angry Dumpling's first physical site.
What made them stand out was how customers will be able to purchase a variety of frozen dumplings that they may boil or pan-fry at home in addition to dining in and taking out.
The menu, which is still being finalized, will include a variety of seasonal flavors and classic dumpling variations. Chicken and ginger, pork and cabbage, and pork and onion are examples of traditional Chinese dumplings that are eaten with chili oil or vinegar dipping sauce.
While seasonal options will change, previous choices have included fall vegan (pumpkin, tofu, rice noodles, and spices), lamb and carrot, butternut squash, jalapeño poppers, and "Heart Healthy" (ground turkey and vegetables). Along with American fusion dishes like Buffalo chicken, Philly cheesesteak, and Margherita pizza, Angry Dumpling has also served dessert dumplings, including apple pie, s'mores, and peach crisps. They will also provide fried rice and bubble tea in addition to their specialty of handcrafted Chinese dumplings.
Although the exact hours are still being decided, Li and McCarthy will let their eager customers know soon!
