My friend Dan has been analyzing the New York City Restaurant Inspection Data and did a search to find every restaurant in NYC with the word “Dumpling” in the name of the restaurant.  Below is a map of these restaurants, there are actually fewer restaurants that I would have expected.  My favorite discovery in the data is a spot called Dumpling King Pizza, on Avenue O in Brooklyn.

You can see his site at nygeog.com, I think his tag line “Geography, GIS, Geospatial, New York City, Computers, Music & Beer” says it all, although I don’t get his Phish obsession.
