Foreign friends visiting Taipei must try 'Ding Hao Zi Lin' Dumpling House.

When friends from abroad visit Taipei, they often love several of the city's unique attractions. The Eastern District is usually a must-visit itinerary. Besides shopping, I always recommend them to dine at this place, which I consider my post-work kitchen. With a variety of dishes, Zi Lin Dumpling House never gets old, no matter how many times you visit. 😋 🌟 The main dishes include steamed and fried dumplings, soup noodles, mixed noodles, and pancakes. If you're dining with a group, it's a good idea to order a variety and share. The middle section offers side dishes, mostly common cold dishes that are hard to go wrong with. They also have hot and sour soup and beef egg soup to pair with your meal. In the summer, the barley and mung bean soup is cheap, delicious, and refreshing! 🌟 For first-time visitors, I recommend trying two things: the 'potstickers,' which have a crispy skin and juicy filling, making them a popular choice; and the steamed dumplings, with options like 'fresh meat dumplings' and 'vegetable dumplings.' 🥟 The dumpling skin is chewy, and the filling is rich and flavorful. They taste even better with the accompanying sauce, and you'll find yourself eating one after another. 👍 💯 This place is popular among tourists from Japan and Hong Kong. Luckily, the location expanded, so you can get a seat quickly even if there's a line. If you get a chance to visit again, I highly recommend the spicy dry beef noodles (better than the soup version) and the beef roll pancake, which are my go-to dishes! Delicious. 📍 B1, No. 97, Section 4, Zhongxiao East Road, Da'an District, Taipei City (Ding Hao Shopping Mall)
