I saw some colorful Xiao Long Bao 小籠包 while looking for a place to eat in Grand Plaza, and decided to check it out.

 

2/ Specialty Dynasty Xiao Long Bao (8 flavors) 特色皇朝小籠包 (八色)

 

Xiaolongbao refers to a type of small Chinese steamed bun traditionally prepared in a xiaolong, a small bamboo steaming basket. Xiaolongbao are often referred to as a kind of "dumpling", but are distinct from Chinese jiaozi or wonton. [1]

 

1. 招牌原味 Signature Original

2. 芝士 Cheese

3. 蟹粉 Crab Roe

4. 蒜香 Garlic

5. 川味 Szechaun

6. 韓式泡菜 Korean Kimchi

7. 鵝肝 Foie Gras

8. 黑松露 Black Truffle

 

The signature original is definitely the best.

 

3/ Vinegar 醋 is the only condiment I need for Xiao Long Bao.

 

4/ But some people also prefer hot sauce and pepper.

 

5/ 聞香蔥油餅 Scallion Pastry

 

6/ 聞香蔥油餅 Scallion Pastry - Inside view

 

Unusual item. Tasty. This pastry seems to be a modern interpretation of the traditional dish — Scallion pancakes 蔥油餅.

 

7/ 蘿蔔絲酥餅 Radish Pastry

 

Shredded daikon radish is thinly sliced and wrapped in pastry. Aka Turnip Puff Pastry, Radish Puff.

 

8/ 香煎豆沙鍋餅 Pan-fried Pancake with Red Bean Paste

 

Shanghainese dessert. One of my favorite desserts in Chinese cuisine. Often, I would intentionally dine in Shanghainese restaurants just so I know that I could order this dish.
