@Madrid made the great suggestion of Dumpling House above. If you’re inclined in that direction here’s @Parsnipity’s post on it and mine. Both are “recent”, at least in terms of our sedate pace these days. There’s also the excellent 5-Spices House in Central.
Much of the best food at both places is spicy, but there are dumplings at both restaurants (obviously at DH, but also at 5-S) that are very good. On the non-spicy side at 5-S the scallion fried rice is a sleeper hit, and the sizzling chicken with crispy rice also terrific (although it requires some minimal assembly).
But, IF you’re inclined in this culinary direction I suggest a look at Shanghai Fresh, also in the general neighborhood. We ate there many times in the pre- days and the foods was always unusual, and often exciting. It was a testament that food could set your taste buds alight without setting them on fire. [Disclosure: Have not had their food in 5ish years (but a lot of it before).]
