"When Din Tai Fung first opened in Covent Garden it was walk-in-only, complete with a long line of xiao long bao enthusiasts snaking up Henrietta Street, toe-tapping and questioning how fluffy a pork bun has to be to justify a two-hour wait. But now, you can book—this huge, 250-seater restaurant usually has space—which makes Din Tai Fung useful for a quick, day or night dim sum moment." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, sinead cranna
