| - If you're in the area craving delicious Shanghai-nese xiao long bao and don't want to bother flying to China and waiting in the long lines at Cheng Huang Miao, check this place out! The xiao long bao here are delightful with a thin delicate skin filled with lots of delicious soup and meat! Just like they do it back home :)
I came here with my parents and we got the liang ban gan si and the xun yu as the cold dishes, hot and sour soup, xiao long bao, crab xiao long bao, pot stickers, wonton soup, sao mai, and shrimp dumplings.
I would definately get the liang ban si, xiao long bao, and wonton soup again. The xun yu on the other hand was a bit of a disappointment as you could tell the fish was far from being fresh. The crab xiao long bao were also disappointing as they were more expensive yet not as tasty as the original. The pot stickers, shrimp dumplings and sao mai were also a bit plain. Finally, I'm not a huge fan of hot and sour soup in general so I can't properly judge that.
All in all, if I'm ever back in Toronto again, I'll definately stop by for some xiao long bao and yummy memories of Shanghai :D
