1

Gojuban

TokyoJapan
3-2 Kagurazaka
Recommended by Travelife Magazine and 3 other food critics.
"This one is highly recommended as well. It reminds me of the xiao long bao with its rich soupy sauce trapped inside, oozing out of the siopao when you bite it."

Lu-Gang

TokyoJapan
3-1-12 Setagaya
Recommended by Tsunagu Japan and 1 other food critic.
"Lu-Gang’s owner learned how to make them at a famous restaurant in Taiwan before opening this restaurant in Tokyo, so they’re very particular about their ingredients. You can eat a gentle yet delicious nikuman on your visit."
