Haven’t found great ones but had Dolo recently and they were ok. If you like dumplings in general, I recommend Lao Peng you. So good!

The answer is no. There isn’t any good XLB in chicago. Ed’s potsticker used to be ok but then they plummeted in quality.

I have been to almost every place in Chicago that offers soup dumplings - have not been any place I would call amazing (esp compared to some places I’ve been to in NYC, SF or Seattle). A few that are better than the others here in Chicago; Ming Hin, dumpling house (hit or miss dependent on the day :)), northern taste (not typical looking soup dumplings).

Hing Kee were the best I've had in Chicago.

Potsticker House weren't too far off the mark

Hi Everyone!

A company has made an offer and I wanted to understand if i'm being made a fool.

The monthly compensation is 1,37,500 (16,50,000 yearly) and Variable component (Bonus) is 1,50,000.

However in the offer it says "You shall be paid an annual compensation of Rs. 16,50,000/- per annum Cost to Company."

Which to me sounds like it doesn't consider 1,50,000 to be a part of CTC which is suspicious to me.

How should I deal with this?

Thank you!
