We love xiao long bao but cringe as we reach into our wallets to pay $8 for 10 tiny dumplings at Din Tai Fung; since 10 dumplings aren't quite enough for a guy's appetite, we often have to get at least 2 orders. We have to watch spending closely; thus, we attempted to create this Din Tai Fun specialty at home. While it's true you don't get the entertainment of watching workers pinching away mini folds on the dumplings through a glass window, it's definitely cheaper to have them at home. Bon Appetite!
holy sheeba! i have to tell H cuz he loves xiao long bao. we should place an order with you.
