Taipei Eats: Hang Zhou Xiao Long Bao, Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall
I suddenly think about xiao long bao. And not, it's not gonna materialize right before me at this hour by itself. So I can only blog about it. And cry in hunger. LOL.
The Taiwanese did not really like to eat xiao long bao at Din Tai Fung (DTF). They always say the xiao long bao sold at DTF are overpriced. Well, okay, if that's the case, I decided to try xiao long bao sold at...other places. For once, there is one just behind Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall. It's called Hang Zhou Xiao Long Bao.

There is a queue in front of the restaurant but it's not as bad as the queue at DTF. Within 5 minutes, we got our seats. ^^
English menu is available here.
We ordered the juicy shrimp dumpling (the menu does say that). The shrimps are indeed big. Happiness~~~
Some buns. Shoot, I forgot what's inside. I should not procrastinate when it comes to blogging. Hahahaha. Hmm, char-siew? custard? red bean? lotus? OK, my money is either on char-siew or custard 'cause I don't think my friend will go with red bean or lotus. LOL.
And of course we must order the speciality, xiao long bao. They taste quite good, comparable to DTF I think.
The restaurant is located right behind Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall so there's a distance to walk before you reach this place. Well, exercise before eating is healthy I suppose. =P
