"Taiwan’s legendary soup dumpling restaurant runs a brisk trade, with wait times averaging around two hours for walk-ins. Reservations are highly recommended, especially with hungry kids in tow. Before getting seated, families can marvel at the precision and speed of the dumpling-making process through a large window. The pork xiao long bao, shrimp and pork potstickers, and pork chop fried rice are favorites for kids. For dessert, don’t skip the steamed chocolate and mochi xiao long bao and black sesame paste and mochi xiao long bao with a side of fluffy sea salt foam for dipping." - Helen I. Hwang
