No. 1 in the world · November 2026
Din Tai Fung (Xinyi Road)
No. 1The one to order
The pork xiao long bao, 18 folds each, then the shrimp and pork shao mai
The shop that took the soup dumpling around the world started as a cooking-oil store on this street in 1958; the folds are still counted and the skins still weighed.
Make it at home
Xiao long bao (soup dumplings)
6 hr (mostly chilling the jelly), about 1 hr 15 min hands-on · About 32 dumplings, 4 people. The soup inside is a jellied stock folded into the filling cold; it melts in the steamer. Make the jelly the day before and the rest is a long, happy afternoon of pleating.
