When I arrived at around 1pm the restaurant was jam packed as the pics show. So I chose take out.
The menu for the dumplings are easy as they have pics on the board and menu. No English text though. I ordered the prawn and veg/meat combo, as you see in the vid freshly being made in the compact kitchen. Both were delicious. Thin skins, great flavor with a lot of filling, crisp at the bottom, silky soft above and perfectly seasoned. Crazy taste sensation especially with the added sesame.
It all combines to give you an amazing dish that will become addictive.
Both portions in my pic for ¥43 is enough to fill me easily, excellent value too. Don’t waste your money at Michelin star...
Read more小杨生煎馆 Yang's Fried Dumpling (which I didn't know it's English name translation at the time of our visit 2008) on Ningbo Road which at the time of our visit around the time of the Olympics, didn't have any English signs nor menus in English. Came upon this place just walking around the neighborhood from the Riverside Bund Hotel we were staying nearby.
小杨生煎馆 Yang's Fry Dumpling, especially at this particular location, being able to watch the workers through the window as they cook them. Piping hot, inside, filled with liquid, filling, delicious.
Ordering the Xiao Long Nap was easy enough to just point and click, but anything else I couldn't communicate with them, such as wonton,...
Read moreTheir crispy dumpling bun is awesome!! I recomme d ordering their pork fillings instead of their shrimps (somewhat fishy). They are very reasonably priced, superbly delicious and can be dangerously hot since most of the time it is served fresh from the pan. Eat with caution and dont be tempted to eat it all in one bite because it is seriously hot!!.
Their fishball soup is also not bad. Overall the food gets a 4.5/5. The only thing i dont like is the overall cleanliness of the restaurants (alot of their locations have similar plight), there is this weird smell, uneasy "not clean enough" tables...
