Supposed it should be torn by bare hands in irregular shape, rather than cut by knife. It's because cutting would press the sides to fold and not even. Then the sauce is not absorbed evenly. This dish is very common in Shanghai cuisine and as an int'l acclaimed shop, they shouldn't make such a wrong step. Sigh - those M star people really don't study the background and history of Chinese cuisine.in the seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08685358330526357082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36813021.post-15726005454807708452011-07-08T10:01:03.118-07:002011-07-08T10:01:03.118-07:00Then I need to bring my macro lens. :)Then I need to bring my macro lens. :)in the seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08685358330526357082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36813021.post-85870439728557136022011-07-08T10:00:15.215-07:002011-07-08T10:00:15.215-07:00That will be an interesting snack then. 5 people ...That will be an interesting snack then. 5 people to share a basket of steamed dumpling.

Yes, looking at how thin of that dumpling is an enjoyment of art and their acclaimed 15 wraps to seal the dumpling - 15摺. :)in the seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08685358330526357082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36813021.post-56986785071137953262011-07-07T03:28:15.096-07:002011-07-07T03:28:15.096-07:00yes, just share one basket of DTF bao-alike-dumpli...yes, just share one basket of DTF bao-alike-dumplings, it is bao alike, not xiao-long-bao ..<br /><br />service indeed is good, otherwise it will get 2 stars only from me ..Thailand Clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02795919721335570446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36813021.post-66616002317099315872011-07-06T10:50:52.476-07:002011-07-06T10:50:52.476-07:00I think we can still go to this place but not orde...I think we can still go to this place but not order much. :)in the seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08685358330526357082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36813021.post-34307917636783783602011-07-05T23:20:21.162-07:002011-07-05T23:20:21.162-07:00Har SEA, you can still dig out so many "good ...Har SEA, you can still dig out so many "good things" from this place to justify its high price and low quality(also no taste). <br />You are very creative.Stellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15713625627545065903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36813021.post-68358446408948596852011-07-05T11:26:45.082-07:002011-07-05T11:26:45.082-07:00It's really worth that price because they spen...It's really worth that price because they spent much time on making the veggie losing the original aroma. Time is a cost in this regard. Then they spent so much time to make that dumpling wrap that thin. I think I have to admit that their dumpling wrap is really thin in terms of skill technique. What's more, I don't know how they can make fried rice without rice and egg original flavour. :)<br />BTW, I am now ok to go to this place because I can find my "true fitness" program from this place.
