Totally craving for these velvety thin parcels (thick and floury ones are such a turn-off for me) encasing fresh pork and prawns with a hint of pepper, doused in a piquant reservoir of red chili oil and black vinegar now. It also doesn't hurt that it's incredibly affordable, at only $4.50 for 10 ping pong-sized dumplings.
They also serve up a mean rendition of xiao long bao, skillfully folded into thin, yet resilient vessels containing a magical broth & pork filling. Try also their delicious Zha Jiang Mian (Minced Pork Handmade Noodles) and Hot & Sour soup (they are so generous with their ingredients)! #burpple #hawkergems #foodspotting #cheapandgood

Was exploring Chinatown and stumbled upon a stall selling 'xiao long bao'. Upon observing a little on how the 'shifu' swiftly knead the xlb then send to steam a-la minute, my instinct tells me that this is definitely some quality xlb.
.
True enough. The skin of the xlb is as thin as paper, which encapsulate the flavourful pork fillings that squirt juices upon a harmless bite.

I'm sold.
One dumpling with two different texture. What else could I asked for?
Very hard to plate on a bowl plate. π
