"Din Tai Fung is rarely empty. No matter the time or day, people want soup dumpling deliciousness. Since 1972, Din Tai Fung has been serving up legendary dumplings and its San Diego spot is no exception. Chefs weigh each dumpling to exactly 21 grams and create by hand the signature 18 folds. Every dumpling. Every day. Try the crab and kurobuta xiao long bao, vegan dumplings, or chicken and mushroom buns. The sides might not have all the impressive folds, but the mustard greens with shredded ginger is a bright accompaniment and the other vegetable dishes are packed with flavor. Don’t skip dessert either! The chocolate and mochi xiao long bao and sweet taro buns have just the right amount of sweetness to end the meal." - Vox Creative
