Across from the Manila Chinatown Hotel on Buenavidez Street in Binondo is the two-story Wai Ying Fast Food restaurant. Located in the heart of Chinatown, Wai Ying has been a staple for over a decade. The classic wonder on their menu is the siomai. The meatiness and firmness of it are the main reason why the customer kept on coming back on their store. Indulging yourself into their famous siomai will definitely give you a satisfying sense of savor. It also has a great texture thanks to the combination of crunchy shrimp and mushroom chunks! Their Beef Ball comes up next, and it's another smash hit of mine. It’s a fantastic way to satisfy our Chinese food cravings: mild, tasty, and bursting with meat flavor! The hakaw is another popular dish here. Wrappers and shells were delectable and papery, what made it more superb is the satisfying crunch I received as I bit on them.
