There's a whole bunch of spots to eat in New World Mall, but this is one of our favorite stalls to get pan-fried pork buns! They're Shanghainese sheng jian baos, filled with hot soup. They’re juicy, flavorful, filling, and freshly made in front of you. I love seeing that huge pan of rotating buns as well. While the top is soft and fluffy, the bottom is crispy, crunchy, and toasted. You can enjoy the soupy pork bun with vinegar, chili oil, or just by itself. Eat these very carefully, like a soup dumpling! PanBao66 六六生煎王 (inside New World Mall) (136-20 Roosevelt Ave, Flushing, NY 11354) Open daily 10am-8:30pm

Freshly made but long wait (more than 10-15 minutes). Great technique: good amt of soup and crispy bottom. The taste of the filling is just OK. I prefer the Shanghai style of a very thick bottom bun - almost 3/4” so this one is very thin. 6 for $9, 8 for $11. A bit of a wait. Apple Pay, credit card at same rate as cash. Dec 2024

Unlike the others, I found the skin part to be too thick (born/raised in Shanghai, I know my food so idk why others are saying they prefer it to be thick), but I haven’t tried any other 生煎 places in nyc, so this will suffice. Juicy and generous fillings. 6 for $10 or $14 with a soup. Waited 15 min ish.

I was there few week ago,The bao was ok, but the experience at the counter was quite unpleasant. The older lady at the cashier who seemed to be the boss, had a cold, unfriendly attitude. I stood in front of her for 2~3 minutes while she looked at me, then looked away, saying absolutely nothing. No greetings just ignoring .I approached her to place my order, and she continued ignoring me as if I wasn’t even there. Another staff member stepped in to take over the order processed , while she still silently took my money without even eye contact. I asked the staff if maybe they were just too busy, and that’s why she (the boss) acted so cold or arrogant?!. Or maybe business is doing so well now that basic manners become optional. If you are the boss , remember ,without customers you are absolutely nothing !

very delicious pan fried soup dumpling and very cheap! it’s located inside New World mall eatery. The actual name of the restaurant is different so it was hard to find. The eatery cafeteria was very crowded ahd no AC blowing.

The store is located in the food court on the Lower Level of the New World Mall. They only took cash when I visited so I would prepare some. I was lucky enough to get some right after they just finished a batch so I didn't need to wait for long. Tasty, moist pork filling and hot, flavorful broth wrapped inside satisfyingly chewy wrappers with a golden crispy bottom. I recommend having these dumplings with some vinegar to cut the richness since it got a bit too fatty for me after a few (very good) bites.

The pan fried buns here are pretty good. I still prefer my spot in Manhattan; but these prices can't be beat. The filling is generous and soup in the buns, tasty. I prefer a thicker, fluffier wrap; but for this price, I'm still happy with what I got.

They only had 4 left and I ordered it. I was too hungry to notice that the menu options were only 6 for 10$ and 8 for 12$. So they made some random price up for me that was 4 for 8$ and she said to me “you bought fewer so it has to be more expensive” where in fact there was only 4 left. Terrible service and lack of honesty here. Taste is very mediocre as well.

Every time we come to flushing we get this now! I was introduce by Instagram and my sister. The Vinager soy sauce is so delicious. They make this in front of you. 8pc of pan fried dumplings for $12 is not bad at all. This place is the food court in the corner and cannot be skipped at all!

So so so good! Probably one of the best things that Flushing has to offer. The buns are steaming, piping hot filled with delicious soup. The meat is perfect, not too fatty not too lean. The bottom of the bun is crispy.. just perfection. Service is fast. They have the buns cooking on 3 different large pans right in front of you. We come here at least once or twice a month. I do notice that sometimes the buns have less soup than other times. It probably depends on who is making them. Not a fan of their zhajiangmian - a little too much vinegar for me. No frills, cash only type of place.

Super crowded super juicy super hot super popular. That about sums up this food stall lol My friend took me here when we were going on our food tour and they said this was the best pan fried buns in the city and they weren't wrong. Be careful when you eat it because they come piping hot with juices. You eat it with the soy sauce and chili and sip the broth first. Proceed with caution because you'll sweat eating this on a hot hot day. I have zero regrets it was one to the best things I've ate on my trip to NY.

This is my favorite pan fried soup Dumpling place. The dumplings are fresh and flavorful, and cooked perfectly with the crispy bottom. They have the sauce station on the side with to-go containers for the vinegar or hot chili oil. BEWARE: do not go during "rush hour" (lunch time, dinner time). The line can get long and the wait ends up being 15-20 mins. Worth the wait but you will be starving on line. There are plenty of other stalls you can visit in between. The food court is quite busy during certain times but you can usually find a seat if you walk around a few times. It can get loud in there but its a pretty "regular food court" vibe.

I saw this place online and had been craving authentic sheng jian bao for a while. It's located in the mall, and is one of the stalls that actually accepts credit card. We got a total of 16 buns, and they all came fresh and hot. You can watch them cooking and spinning right in front of you! The flavor of the soup and pork was good, but the dough was a little thick imo. It also didn't have the super crispy bottom like I'd expect from the more authentic places. Nonetheless, it did satisfy the cravings.

This place has the best sheng jian baos in NYC - no competition. I've never had a bad experience here and whenever I'm in flushing, I MUST stop by here. Their baos are crispy, fresh, HOT, and flavorful. The only time i've had comparable shenjianbaos were in Asia, even then, these might have been better. If you're at the food court, I'd say this should be your first stop. Everything else is optional, but this spot is a MUST. 10$ for 6, service is fast and food is indescribably delicious. They have chili sauce and vinegar as condiments, very no frills - but what more can you ask when you get to eat the best baos ever?

So great I can finally write a review for one of my favorite sheng jian bao places in the US! This is one of the most popular food stalls at New World Mall and for good reason too. When you arrive, you order at the front counter before you get the food immediately at the counter right next to it. We ordered 8 sheng jian baos for two and I wish we ordered more. Each bao comes piping hot with so much soup on the inside. Although the skin is on the thicker side, I love that the outside is more crispy with this almost burnt taste and texture to it while the inside is extremely soft. The meat filling is delicious and it didn't feel too heavy as most of the time when I eat this dish I need to have it with vinegar. Overall, one of my most recommended eats in New World Mall basement.

Liu Liu Sheng Jian is located in the basement food court of New World Mall. There's no service and the tables are crowded, though not impossible to find a seat on a Saturday afternoon. There was only a couple folks in line to order, but they hand you a receipt with a number and that's when the actual wait begins. They call numbers out before loading you up with fresh sheng jian bao straight from the pan. Sheng Jian Bao (4.5/5): The skin is thin, but has a nice bit of chew. Beautifully crispy bottom and the inside is just as juicy as a soup dumpling. Generous with the pork, which is seasoned to perfection and the bit of scallions adds a bit of freshness as well. Definitely worth swinging by in Flushing and probably as good as it gets in the states.

Coming here is a total vibe. If you've ever been to China or Taiwan, this is the closest you'll get to the street food and night market scene in NY. Come hungry because this is probably not the only place you'll want to try here. Located in the basement of the New World Mall is a bustling food court of approx 30 hawkers. Liu Liu Sheng Jian is one of the more popular stalls, you can spot them pretty easily in one of the corners of the place. You'll see their pan friend pork buns cooking in rotating pans on display for all to see and smell. Orders are plucked directly from the pan so they are piping hot. The trick is to bite or poke a hole in the bun, drink some of the juice inside and then carefully bite. Be mindful of the hole, hot juices will come squirting out from there. Now why is this sounding dirty? Anyways, pan fried pork buns are a Shanghainese classic and they do it well!

Of course this stall went viral after a few influencers posted about it. Now there's always a line for their sheng jian baos. I have to admit, they're really fresh and juicy. I never used to be a fan because of the thick dough, but the crispy bottom totally makes up for it. They're so flavorful and definitely live up to the hype. Just don't forget the vinegar--it balances everything. So good!

A must if you are in New World Mall. The bao buns are so good! And you can see how they cook it. Location: It is located at the basement of New World Mall. It is stall number 29! Lot of seatings because it's a food court. It can be crowded! Service: not that much interaction. I ordered and wait for my order. Food: only thing is that the menu is in Chinese. I just pointed what I want and not sure if there is other varieties of the bao. PAN BAO: not sure it this what it is called all I know is that its delicious. The bun was soft and the pork filling was flavorful and it has mild soup inside. The bottom of the bao is very crispy. Price rating: 6/10 price range. I paid $11 for 8 pan bao. Not bad cause it's filling. I will definitely come back here because the bao buns ate the best I had. Will try the soup they have next!

During a recent self-organized Flushing dumpling crawl, we concluded our tour at the New World Mall food court with some soup dumplings (from another stall) and shen jian bao from Liu Liu Sheng Jian. Of the various dumplings and baos we sampled (6-7 establishments in total), these were my personal fave. Consistent with the general New World Mall experience, the situation here is a bit chaotic. You order at the register (and decide if you want a smaller 6-piece or larger 8-piece portion), then awkwardly stand around trying to not be in everyone else's way while you await your buns. Fortunately, your purchase comes with a built-in show, as you watch the folks behind the counter expertly load, grease, steam, and serve plate after plate of gloriously glistening baos. Once you pick up your order, be sure to snag condiments (availability seems hit-or-miss) at the counter to the right of the steamer trays, along with utensils and napkins. Finally, good luck finding seating to enjoy your starch-wrapped prize. May the odds be ever in your favor. The baos themselves are pretty flawless, with crispy, crusty, caramelized bottoms and fluffy, pillowy, chewy tops filled with moist, brothy pork. Be careful, as they're essentially soup dumplings. We definitely had some accidents, with fatty meat juice splashing hither and yon as we inexpertly bit into our buns. Fortunately, no one sustained serious injuries, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed our snack.

Definitely a must visit when going to New World Mall! Perfect for anyone craving pan fried buns, the crispy bottom is perfectly golden, while the bread itself is still soft and fluffy. While these soup dumplings don't have an overwhelming amount of juice inside, the well-seasoned meat filling more than makes up for it with its rich, savory flavor. Don't forget to grab some chilli oil and vinegar to eat it with Service is fast and efficient, making it a great grab-and-go option in the busy food court. It is extremely affordable and filling with 6 buns for 9.99! Would recommend!

The sheng jian baos at this new world mall food court stall do not disappoint. I've ordered these on multiple occasions and they are always fresh, piping hot, and super juicy. The workers may seem a bit intimidating but I was able to order with no problem in English. I was glad to see that they also take credit card. They offer vinegar and a spicy chili oil for the baos, which I gladly used for my meal. Even though these baos don't look like much on the outside, each dumpling was filled with pork broth and was steaming hot. I enjoyed the delicious pork filling and the crunch of the baos, which is pretty hard to master. Its always a struggle to eat them in a way where you don't lose any soup but it's part of the fun. This is definitely my go to spot for my sheng jian bao cravings and would recommend to all.

Ordered the cooked, the frozen, and whatever else they had. I know its called Sheng Jian baos. But, im sorry this is what a "wall-teep" should be like! Not sure if you haven't notice. Not many asian places even make it like that anymore. I feel like its been rebranded and now its on a "higher end" kind of deal. But that's just my random thoughts. On to the soupy pan fried dumplings. First off. The flavors, the explosion in your mouths of juices flowing says it all! Is it expensive. It's a bit on the pricey side but still well worth it! One order of these bad boys will definitely keep you filled. It was so good. I didn't even get to take a photo! Which is a rarity! But you gots to eat it hot and fresh! Heck! Scratch that! I bought frozen ones and made some at home with the pan and THEN air fried it all around OOoohh MAhHhh GAwWWd. PORNO in your mouth. That's all I'm saying. Definitely a recommend. Not over hyped! Just the truth! Selfishly I didn't even want to write about it. Keep it on the DL... But the TRUTH MUST COME OUT!

Probably the best 生煎包 sheng jian baos I've had in the US?! Heard about this place and knew I had to stop by the next time I was in Flushing! Don't know what I was really expecting, but it exceeded them. Each bite was filled with tasty soup. The pork meat is tender, juicy, and well-seasoned. Appreciated the meat to fat ratio. Loved how the bottom is nicely fried and charred, which gives it a nice crunch! Appreciated how the bun itself isn't too thick or doughy. Taken together I wish I ordered more because they were delicious! I love how they fried them right in front of you so they come out hot and sizzling. Staff are very kind. A small portion includes 6 buns, while the large has 8. You can also get a combo with glass noodles which offered a nice clear broth and perfect for the winter.

Couldn't ask for a better Sheng Jian Bao. Super crispy on the bottom, plenty of broth, nice porky flavor. These things come out like lava hot though, so make sure you take your time.

One of the most authentic renditions of Shanghainese "Sheng Jian Bao" that I've had in the United States. These can be thought of as the pan-fried cousin to the more popular steamed soup dumpling ("xiao long bao"). These dumplings featured a thin wrapper, juicy filling, and crispy base. Be aware, these are pretty rich and greasy, definitely a heart snack. Highly recommend you check out this vendor if you find yourself in the New World Mall food court.

Stopped by about an hour before closing and grabbed a few buns to go. They were already made and seemed like they had been sitting on the pan for a bit, so I didn't expect much. I ate them about 30 minutes later and they were still piping hot, juicy, and packed with flavor. Honestly, if they're this good as takeout, I can only imagine how incredible they'd be made fresh to order. Definitely worth the hype it's been getting on social media. Will be back to try it fresh next time!

Late to the party but better late than never! The stall is located in the corner of the New World Mall food court and I never paid it much attention until recently. I've seen tons of recs for it and finally gave it a try. Their specialty is the panfried buns and you can see it being churned out constantly from the hot cooktops right in front of you. There are other items too but the buns take center stage for sure. The buns are panfried to a crisp and filled with hot and juicy pork filling in the middle. The textural contrast is amazing and you can pair it with some of their chili oil for a little bit of heat. I've visited twice in a week and I still crave it. Hmm, amazing buns for sure.

One of the most popular spots in the New World Mall Food Court known for the sheng jian baos or pan fried dumplings. There's a bit of a line, so good to come with others and have someone else find a table while one waits in line to order. We got the order of 6 sheng jian baos for $8.99. The buns are piping hot, so be careful when eating them right away. Plus, be warned that juices will come squirting out, so gently take a small bite and drink up the juice first. They also have a chili sauce and vinegar to add. The chili sauce is actually very spicy, but gave it so much flavor. Overall, solid pan fried buns that are great for sharing to have one or two during a Flushing food crawl.

Everytime when I'm in Flushing and craving for fried buns, this is the place for it! You can see them making it. These buns are always served fresh and hot, and are very affordable, with sets of six or eight buns priced around $9 to $11. It tastes flavorful with their pork filling and savory broth. Pan Bao 66 is located in the New World Mall food court in Flushing. The wait doesn't take that long and good service. It's a great spot to try if you're in the area and looking for tasty, freshly made fried pork buns. Inside the New World Mall, they also have different food courts serving different kinds of food. It's spacious inside with plenty of seatings as well.

The shengjian bao were delicious as expected, but the combos feel like a scam. Probably the most pitiful bowl of soup noodles I've had - not worth the additional cost or wait. You'd think you're getting a deal, but just spend a few more dollars and get noodles anywhere else. I want to reiterate that their speciality, the shengjianbaos, were great. I'd gladly come back for more. Be sure to eat them with the black vinegar if it's your first time.

They serve some of the best shen jian bao outside of Shanghai!!! $9 for 6 or $11 for 8. They come out piping hot so watch out for the hot soup inside! The filling is juicy, soup has a good taste, and the skin is nice and crispy on the bottom. Everything is made fresh right in front of you, and it's served to you right off the pan. It took ~10 minutes for them to call my order since there was a pretty long line around noon on a Saturday. This place is in the basement food court of the New World Mall, so it's kind of chaotic and hard to find a seat. But honestly it's all so worth it for these buns. I'm going to be thinking about these for a while - I'll be back here every time I'm in Flushing.

There are already a ton of reviews noting how amazing these bao are, and this is one more to add to the pile! The service is quick and, while you wait, you can watch the big trays of these bao spin slowly around in their oil bath. Mmmmnnn. Honestly, the most important thing to keep in mind as you sit down with a plate fill of six of these bad boys is that they are HOT inside. Really, really hot. So poke a hole in the top, blow a bit if you have no shame, and then bite away. Wow. Just wow. Enjoy

$9 for 6 PERFECTLY fried Shen jian bao (pan fried bao). You can find this place in the new world mall food court. Down the escalator, dead ahead and on your right hand side. Owner is nice, and gets your food out to you practically instantly. Those bao are super fresh and hot. I always burn my tongue, but they're just too good to wait. They have an amazingly crispy, crunchy bottom, and are filled with flavorful juicy meat and soup (this is what usually burns my mouth, so be careful). They have chili oil and black vinegar as self service. It's standard, and the chili oil is decently spicy. I think this is likely one of my favorite Shen jian bao in the city, and definitely one of the best stalls in new world mall! Highly recommend everyone to go try it out

This place is the reason I make the trek to flushing. It's $12 for 8 buns. The buns are piping hot every time I've gotten it. It's so juicy and the filling is so well seasoned. The skin is fried at the bottom, so good! This place is worth the hype that they get.

Amazing Sheng Jian baos. They were juicy and packed with flavor. They only offer pork filling- 8 pcs for $12. Add the hot sauce, you will not be disappointed.

These are NOT the best, authentic pan fried soupy buns/sheng jian bao 生煎包 in New York City at all; they are ok for those who never had pan fried soupy buns, but they're not the authentic, Shanghai-style kind: 1. The skin is not as thin and too soft. The delicious kind has thin skin and a bit chewy still and holds up the soup inside well. 2. Bottom is not on par with being crunchy. I've had great ones has a thick, crunchy bottom. 3. Too big: Yes lol these are too big but hey for the money value, sure. The authentic kinds are not this big. Overall: It's a vendor located in the basement of New World Mall. It could take some time to wait for your order if they just ran out. The ambiance is usually busy and crowded: You will have to try your luck to find a spot to sit down. FYI There is a place nearby in Flushing that serves a pan-fried soupy bun that's closer to the authentic kind.

Located in New World mall food court, this is a must-try. I've seen so many pictures and videos of Liu Liu Sheng Jian's famous pan-fried dumplings and came by just to try it. You can get a small serving of their dumplings for ~$10, and it comes out immediately. The dumplings are so crispy on the outside, fairly doughy, and EXTREMELY juicy and filled with juices/soup. So comforting and delicious.

ABSOLUTELY divine spot for pan fried soup bao (shenjian bao)! This spot is located in New World Mall, so you know it's going to be chaotic and messy and hard to find seating... yet it is always worth it. This spot is cash-only, and are a wonderful deal ($9 for 6, or you can get more for an even better deal) and the bao's are made fresh in front of you! It's a wonderful food to split with friends, though it does contain pork as an fyi. The service is friendly, though it definitely helps to know some Chinese. The stuffing is incredibly flavorful and juicy, which contrasts nicely with the crispy skin of the bao. They also have vinegar to cut through the fattiness of the filling. One complaint I have about bao's sometimes is that the skin is too thick and that the stuffing is too little, but this spot definitely doesn't have that issue. Would come here again and again!

This is a little stall at the corner of the basement food court in New World Mall. Cash only. Don't let the looks deceive you--this place is awesome! They specialize in the pan fried bao and you get some of the juiciest little fried buns in the world. Comparable to China. Be careful though--the juice is very hot and can come squirting out of the bun when you bite into it! I have returned again and again to this place. Must not miss for your Flushing food tour.

Yes yes yes yes yes. Try this place!! Located in the food court of new world mall, just walk straight to the bank after you head out of the escalator. It's in a good court so plenty of seatings and open space in the basement. Place is definition not the most well kept, esp at the self service sauce area. But do they do the pan fried dumplings right. They have the dumplings, or you can order with combo sets too. Tried the combo with curry soup noodle but the combo 3 paired way better ($15). The dumplingsssssssssssss. Think of a thicker skin soup dumpling with crispy bottom. The skin is not too thick with the bottom crispy, not too hard. And the soup! It's got so much flavor and umami but not too rich where you'll get tired if it fast. We had to get another set. As for the noodles, from the combo 3. Not a great amount of glass noodles. But the soup goes great with the pan fried dumplings. There's also two soft looking dumplings which are actually fried gluten for those who want to get more (we did get more from the upstairs supermarket). These from Pan Bao 66 are filled with meet, seems a bit gamey so maybe beef or lamb. All in all definitely give this a try. I was very pleasantly surprised and will be coming back soon.

Awesome pan fried pork bar stall located inside New World Food Court. It's probably the only stall that we visit every time we come. Prices have crept up over the years, but these baos always hit the spot. The buns are kept hot on a giant pan which gives them an ultra crispy bottom. They're filled with a fatty pork filling which becomes a little liquidy like a soup dumpling, so be careful when biting into them! I like to take a small nibble and try to slurp out the juices so that I can safely bite into the bao. They're salty and savory. You can top them with chili oil to your preferred spiciness level. It was $9 for 6 baos as of this review. Service is very quick.

This spot does pan fried pork buns, or sheng jian bao, the best out of any spot I've been to. You know you're at the correct stall in the New World Mall when you see big pans of these buns rotating. This is a must in the New World Mall and I'm sad I didn't try this earlier. My friend said these were similar to ones he had in Shanghai and I wouldn't be surprised if that was true.

I finally got to try this! The last time I came, it was already closed. It was incredibly delicious, but be cautious, it's very fresh and super hot! I ate at the food court since it's best enjoyed fresh.

What is going on here? Is it magic? How is it possible that a humble looking shop such as this can put out food that eats like you've been transported to some royal family celebration, albeit with styrofoam plates? I planned out my day to visit the Food Court in the New World Mall basement, and bookmarked a bunch of places to try based on Yelp reviews, then promptly forgot to look at them. The neat little rows of bao (is it bao, is it dumpling, is it pot sticker? Mere semantics have no place here. I will call them bao). The bao pulled me towards them, and everything else faded away like in a dream. You must know this and pay attention, so you don't cause an international incident. Watch how you're eating the bao. My first attempt, thinking that they were simply potstickers, went horribly wrong as I bit into it and launched steaming hot soup from the interior of the bao directly at my neighbor's head. Thankfully, he had good reflexes, and jovially avoided my culinary missile launch. The bao have soup inside. I did not realize and had mistakenly thought that bao go in soup, not the reverse. Although it sounds fun, please don't waste the soup on bao juice fights. You will need to nibble a small bite and suck the juice out, before engulfing the rest of the bao. Dont neglect to dip in soy sauce and sprinkle the pepper sauce on it. This simple lunch was so ridiculously good. I mean I question my life choices on many occasions, sometimes daily, but here I congratulated myself on picking this place for lunch. Inside the dumplings are a little pork meatball, (and the aforementioned soup), and the bao were all chewy and burnt at the bottom. Oh my, you must try it. Here is my poem in salutation of this excellent bao: Bao you must try The soup will fly At neighbor's eye Be gentle Bao is delicate And delicious In happiness I sigh Thank you bao

Absolutely amazing pan fried pork buns. Imagine a cross between soup dumplings with the tender filling swimming in broth and the crispy skin of a pan fried dumpling mixed together. This place is outstanding.

I have a soft spot for shen jian bao. It's one of my favorite types of buns/dumplings followed by xiao long bao. This place is located in a food court in the new world mall and was easy enough to find. There's plenty of other food stalls but only one selling pan fried dumplings. Price is about $11 for 8 pieces. You can see them making it right in front of you. Service is fast and you grab your own condiments and utensils. The flavor was really good. The buns were sooo juicy. Be careful biting into them because the soup is hot. I like to add vinegar to my buns. Overall: super delicious and satisfies my shen jian bao craving

Authentic Shanghai style pan-fried Bao and soup. Let's talk about the Bao first. The meat inside was hot and so juicy that you must be careful when you take the first bite. Be gentle and careful. The whole process should be relaxing and enjoyable. The pastry was thin. The fried side was crispy and the other side was crunchy. That was how it suppose to be. The soup includes a tofu skin wrapped meat, a fried gluten filled with meat, and thin glass noodles. This soup is iconic back in Shanghai, China. I was surprised to find this in the USA. It truly triggered my childhood memory. The restaurant located inside the food hall. A bit tricky to find a place to sit during lunch time.

Ordered 8 pork pan-fried bao, which were perfect amount for sharing! The skin was the ideal thickness with a crispy bottom. They are made fresh right in front of you, the bao come out piping hot and are super flavorful. The pork is tasty and pairs perfectly with the chili oil on the side and is very filling. A must-try if you're in the food court!

Food: These are some of the best pan fried pork buns I've had outside of Shanghai. The pork buns are constantly being made in front of you in a large circular pan so all orders are served fresh and hot. The skin is thin, and the bottom is crispy. Buns are garnished with scallions and sesame seeds on top. The buns are best eaten while hot so I wouldn't recommend taking them to go. The inside is filled with soup and flavorful pork. Highly recommend this place because they specialize in the pan fried pork buns! Service: Staff is friendly and considerate. When I went back to the counter to grab more napkins, the staff member asked if I needed an extra paper plate because we were two people. Ambiance: This is a stand located in the basement food court of New World Mall in Flushing. The ambiance isn't great, but this spot is meant for quick takeout meals where you find your own table and clean up after yourself. The place can get crowded and noisy, but the food makes it worth it.

6 FRESH dumplings for $9, cannot get better than that. Service was very quick, waited maybe 1 min for my order. Will be back

(Pan Fried Bun: C) - $9 for 6 pan fried bao is well priced but not necessarily cheap. I found these buns to be a little on the smaller side, and even though they look golden brown, they were surprisingly not that crispy. They were filled with a lot of soup, but we were not provided the correct utensils to enjoy such soup without it leaking everywhere. The flavors were still good.

Absolutely incredible sheng jian bao! By now, everyone's familiar with xiao long bao but not as much with XLB's thicker skinned cousin, sheng jian bao. These are pork buns filled with juicy soup like a soup dumpling, but the thicker skin allows for them to be pan fried too so you get both a juicy interior and a crispy fried bottom - best of both worlds. The ones here are amazing - fairly thin skinned so they're not overly doughy, but with a nice crust on the bottom. They're filled with juicy hot soup and it's a careful exercise to eat without burning your tongue. Some of the best food in this popular food court and well worth the trip out to Flushing.
