  • Xiao Long Bao - Shanghai
    Xiao Long Bao

    In Shanghai you must try its famous snacks, especially the Nanxiang Xiao Long Bao, which is absolutely delicious. It is a kind of bao zi or steamed dumpling filled with ground pork and soup. The soup is the special part about these dumplings -- you have to first bite a small hole in the dumpling and sip the soup out. Then you can dip the dumpling in vinegar and enjoy it. I like to put the whole dumpling on a soup spoon to avoid spilling anything. There's also a kind of dumpling that contains only the soup and you put a straw into the dumpling to sip it out. I personally don't like this kind... I still want the meat inside.

    Actually I've never tasted anything from here yet even though I always wish to. But here is just a little tip for you. Always go before 6pm. I was there something about 6.10pm some days ago. They were open though. When I went upstairs, they told me "sorry, we've sold out for today!" I was like "Oh no! This is exactly the dinner hour and they've stopped their work for the day." So I hope you can remember this time and get there earlier. I was quite disappointed.

  • If you want to have takeaway, be patient because the queuee is very long. Prices for takeaway & dine-in are different.

    Famous for its various kinds of dumplings, esp. dumplings with crab roe filling.

    This is the place for xiao long bao (delicious Shanghainese dumpings), though I didn't think it was the very best xiao long bao I've had. Still, it is extremely popular. You can't miss it in Yu Bazaar - there are loads of people queue-ing either to get it or to take away dumplings. It can seem a bit showy - you can watch the chefs at work behind glass panels. The dumplings themselves are v large and quite delicious...

    Xiao long bao - that's all they do, largely.

    Nan Xiang Man Tou Dian (inside YuYuan). Best place for Xialongbao. The girls are carefully taking the meat out from crabs. A team from Japanese TV filming a travel program were sitting next to our table inside the resturant.

    Crab Meat Xialongbao. Yummy........

    The restaurant is called NanXiang ManTouDian is very famous. During anytime of the day you will find very long line ups at the takeout kitchen to buy their famous XiaoLongBao. You will see the workers slaving away all day to meet the demands of the people who line-up, each XiaoLongBao is made and wrapped by hand.

    XiaoLongBao is made famous in Shanghainese cusine, it translates to 'little basket bun' and are traditionally steamed in bamboo baskets. Each bun is filled with hot soup and meat. Be careful when you bit on it, the hot soup adds favour to the bun and may burn your tongue. More pictures from my Shanghai, China Trip @ http://www.xanga.com/aclouietravelogue Visited: May 11, 2005

    The 100-year old Nan Xiang Restaurant specializes in Shanghai style cuisine. Situated in a pleasant environment and equipped with advanced facilities, the restaurant serves first-class foods and is an ideal place to dine.

    The special recommendation is the Nan Xiang small steamed meat bun.

    Every city seems to have it's local famous food that draws long lines every day. In Shanghai it's the Nanxiang Dumpling Store. In the Yu Yuan area a few steps from the YuYuan tea house,they are made with crabmeat and pork. There are long lines everyday with about a 45 min. wait for dumplings. Local people say they are the best in Shanghai because of the combination of meat and paper thin dumpling.People were having their friends photograph them with their long sought after dumplings.
