Chinese restaurant, ... and quickly circled Shanghai snacks from them. There are crab roe soup dumplings so close to home, which really makes me eat a lot. The waiter was smiling and polite when he entered the store. Twenty minutes later, he opened his mouth and said "old sister~". If it tastes good, I will post it on my circle of friends, and if it doesn't taste good, don't post it. I don't. The store has crab roe/crab roe soup dumplings, crab roe/gravy dumplings, pan-fried dumplings and beef pot stickers. The common feature is that they are juicy. The big soup dumplings can be slurped and drunk until the end of time, and the small dumplings also contain a pool of rich juice. The most shocking thing is the beef pot stickers. After biting the head, it actually "whoosh-" biu the soup on the table from the other side. … Although when I saw that there was a fake corn kernel on the top of the small steamed bun, my heart was already galloping, and I began to speculate how terrible the soup dumplings would taste, ... but... it was actually okay? ? The skin is thin, the soup is rich, the seasoning is good, and it has a lot of crab roe. I was already in tears when I ate it in Tokyo. I am grateful. The beef pot stickers are a bit badly seasoned and easy to choke. I listened to my friends' advice and focused on eating dim sum, and didn't order any dishes. I only ordered a plate of seasonal spring bamboo shoots and pork slices. The portion was sufficient, but the thick soy sauce + more salt made me taste a little bit of Northeastern flavor. On this point, I should have listened to my friends, I was wrong.
Make no mistake! This restaurant has nothing to do with Shanghai elements. It is a local business for Japanese old bachelors at night. The facilities in the restaurant are simple. The dishes are not bad, but they are not special. In short, the name of the restaurant and the dishes must not be considered together, otherwise you will be fooled and disappointed.
