This bao is super comfort food, like Fantozzi's cherry tomatoes. It smells great, it's warm, and inside there's a delicious filling. I dip it in soy sauce — it's fantastic.
Biang Biang Noodles
These noodles are as wide as seat belts, from the Xi'an area. They're made by slamming the dough on the counter — that's where the name comes from. They're thick, with big chunks of meat, potatoes, courgettes, and coriander. Just the right amount of spicy. They're difficult to eat, which I love — it's fun. I'd bring someone here on a first date to see how it goes. Happiness must be thick like this.
Xiao Long Bao
These soup dumplings are amazing. The technique is: pierce, drink the broth, then dip. The broth is fatty and super enjoyable, and the acidic sauce balances it perfectly. The gelatin becomes broth — it has to be made fresh. I messed up a bit, but it's still delicious. Once you understand the mechanism, it's simple. Divine.
Crystal Ravioli
These are made with rice flour, stuffed with shrimp. The shrimp is very sweet, delicate. The rice flour pasta has a different texture and mouthfeel — you have to try it. You dip them too, because everything must be dipped in China.
Chicken with Peanuts
This chicken dish has peanuts, spring onion, and a significant quantity of chilli pepper — you can see it from the colour. If a Chinese says 'tasty', also read 'spicy'. It's just the right amount of spicy. Super flavorful, highly seasoned. Order this if you like strong flavours — it's really good.
