With the Shanghai branch experiencing long queues for its takeaways, our friend Steven brought us to the restaurant whilst we were in Hong Kong to try the famed xiaolongbao. These xiaolongbao are soup dumplings traditionally filled with either meat or seafood and with solid meat aspic wrapped inside the skin together with the filling. This gelatin-gelled aspic then melts into soup when steamed.

The puff pastry with cashew nuts was really good. It was unique with its pastry topped with black sesame seeds and filled with cashew nuts on the inside. A must try!
