This very first time that I visited Din Tai Fung, I was skeptical. Having heard many great reviews about their food, especially the Xiao Long Baos, I decided to give it a try. I went with a group of friends who had never stepped foot in Din Tai Fung prior to this visit with the exception of one friend who was always raving about DTF!We ordered many dishes but I'll only be reviewing the Xiao Long Baos here.When the Xiao Long Baos finally arrived at our table, my friend was literally hyperventilat
We ordered many dishes but I'll only be reviewing the Xiao Long Baos here.
When the Xiao Long Baos finally arrived at our table, my friend was literally hyperventilating as she absolutely loves XLB's. However, I was hesitant at first to try it. Afterall, I'm not much a fan of pork. The XLB's are enveloped by a soft skin and packed with juicy, savoury meat within.
The moment I bit into the XLB and the juices squirted and flowed into my mouth, I knew I was in heaven. The meat was very juicy and had the right chewiness to it. My friend was right about how once you pop the first XLB in your mouth, you just can't resist but to continue popping more in!
I ended up eating a grand total of 10 XLB's and even though I was too full after the meal, it was well worth it and I was already planning on when to visit DTF again! Definitely one of the indulgent food I've tried up to date!
