"Its marinated juicy mince pork fillings were sweet and savory. The strong flavors sent me to heaven."
"This culinary masterpiece combines elements of a sesame seed bagel, savory doughnut and pork stew — did I mention there’s both meat and broth inside? It’s like bitesize soup in a bread bowl. So delicious!"
"Fresh out of the pan!! Shengjian bao are like xiaolongbao- pork and delicious soupy broth inside- but pan fried with a thicker dough so the bottoms are crispy aka heavenly."
"Next on your list must be the local pan-fried dumpling, of which Yaba Sheng Jian, or "mute man fried dumplings", is an institution. The lines again might be daunting whether you're eating in or taking away, as the shop attracts not only Suzhou dwellers, but also customers from nearby cities for whom the dumplings make popular giveaways."
