Yuan Wonton

Hungry diners in Denver fell hard for Penelope Wong’s take on Asian comfort foods including, yes, plenty of wontons and other dumplings, when she operated a food truck for several years, including through the pandemic. Since moving into a brick-and-mortar space in Park Hill, Wong and her team have pivoted to mainly lunch and happy hour service while continuing to dish up an ever-rotating selection of first-generation Canto-American creations — and it’s always worth ordering as many dishes as possible. Yuan Wonton also hosts monthly Chifa Night pop-ups with Chinese-Peruvian dishes from chef Carolina Zubiate.
