It fits the theme of Shanghai very well, like the old movie Shanghai Grand.<br /><br />The big xiao long bao looks good. I've seen the straw ones in chain restaurant in KL too but I'm sure it's not as good as the ones in Shanghai.<br /><br />I'll also like the try the sour (!!!) tau fu fa.

The weather was cold and pleasant without rain but damn crowded as it was the Golden Weeks of China.<br /><br />This Xiao Long Bao is quite normal sized by China's standard. I have seen the restaurants operated by the Hui Clans in Xian where the smallest one was like 20 sen coin until the size of a dinner plate for each Xiao long Bao dumpling! It was a mammoth crazy size but FUN! These dumplings are originated from Nanxiang, a suburb outside Shanghai. So you ate and enjoyed the originals!Twilight Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04574109866770324683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232759223373390396.post-79799557377562995382016-02-03T11:31:43.658+08:002016-02-03T11:31:43.658+08:00LOL ..
