The best crab meat dumplings in Shanghai. Recommended for tourists to try. For fresh meat dumplings, I still prefer Yuyuan Nanxiang dumplings. You may need to wait in line for a table at this restaurant in People's Square. The environment and service are so-so. The main thing is that it tastes good. The price is a bit expensive, 100+ per person
Although it is inconspicuous, it is a very good treasure shop. Worth it I went there for two consecutive days to eat. On the first day, I walked here from Sihang Warehouse, but the store was sold out. The next day, I came here immediately after watching a talk show at Huangpu Theater. Fortunately, I didn’t have to wait for a table. In addition to tourists from other places, there were also many locals who patronized.
I've been eyeing this restaurant for a long time. I finally went there today. I specially chose to go there at 2pm because there's no need to queue at this time. I ordered chicken and duck blood soup and crab meat dumplings. I have to say that the taste of this dumpling is really good. The skin is very thin, there's a lot of juice and crab meat inside, and the taste is very fresh. I haven't eaten a dumpling with such a thin skin for a long time. The price of 33/8 is not very cheap. Fortunately, the taste did not disappoint me.
Come to Lai Lai~Take a bite of Mi Dao's super cute must-eat crab roe steamed buns. It is a must-eat hidden in a small restaurant. I bet that when the Shanghai uncle opened the shop, he would never have imagined that it would be so popular. The crab roe and crab paste are handmade every day. Through the open glass window, you can witness the birth process of the steamed buns with your own eyes. The aunt quickly rolls the dough and stuffs the stuffing, pinches the folds in one go, and makes one basket after another without stopping. 🧡 Crab roe steamed buns🧡 and 💛 Crab paste steamed buns💛, each with thin skin and rich fillings, it is really juicy‼ ️The delicious crab meat filling has no odor at all. The steamed bun skin is very thin and tender. Just bite a small hole and the golden crab soup will come out immediately, almost enough to fill a spoonful🥄 ✨Crab meat and shrimp wontons✨White, plump and big, it is hot and plump in the mouth. This big bowl is definitely enough to fill you up. It is a cost-effective work meal for workers. It is perfect✌️
It's a good season to eat crabs, and I'm craving for crab paste. Come and eat the special crab paste dumplings. The crab paste in this season is particularly plump, eight in a cage, and shredded ginger is sold separately. The skin is thin and the soup is rich. Take a bite and the golden soup will overflow immediately. The transparent gelatinous crab paste has a dense taste, and it is mixed with fresh meat in a proper proportion, but it doesn't feel greasy. It's really delicious. I like the steaming and boiling casserole the most. The shape of the big wonton looks so full. The crab paste in the wonton filling is clearly visible, accompanied by the unique aroma of crab oil. At this moment, my face is full of "happiness". If you want to eat crab paste, go to a certain courtyard and have a bowl of crab gold for 380 yuan. If you want to eat crab paste, come here to eat a small steamed bun for half a Mao Zedong without feeling sorry.
I went to this restaurant for a simple meal when I went to the theater nearby to watch a play. I ordered wontons in a casserole with fresh meat, shrimp and crab roe. The wontons were out of fresh meat, so I ordered half a basket of crab roe and half a basket of crab paste. You have to eat the wontons as soon as they are served. You can smell the crab aroma as soon as they are served. The crab roe, shrimp, dried shrimp skin and seaweed, from the wontons to the soup, are so fresh. The wontons are freshly steamed. Try the crab roe first and then the crab paste. Each bite is a spoonful of soup. It's not a problem if you don't know the goods, but it's a problem if you compare the goods. You can tell which one is better by comparing the colors of crab roe and crab paste. You can't eat too much of this kind of thing. This amount is just right, otherwise you will feel sick. The price is not cheap. I ate 62.5 wontons in a small cage, but it is also worth the money. You can try it.
