There are tons of Din Tai Fung xiao long bao (steamed bun with soup) restaurants around Asia, Australia and in Toronto also. But I went to one location in its native city of Taipei, and supposedly the newest location tonight with a few colleagues - in the B1 basement of Taipei 101. To be honest - it was average. I think thus far the best tasting location is in Hong Kong Causeway Bay. On the topic of soup dumplings that originate in Shanghai, they were the worst there actually (stomach aches yuck). At least on the 'plus' side the tung choi (water spinach) is back in season! In general Taipei restaurants are cleaner with better service than in Hong Kong or China (but maybe only in the Xinyi modern area).
This week is the last week of business travel for some time (I hope!). Can't wait to breathe easy this weekend and next week :)
it was my grandma's birthday this week and soon my grandpa's birthday too. I wish I was home to celebrate with them :(
Have a nice Wednesday everyone!
