Where to find sheng jian bao, the best of all dumplings

Why sheng jian bao is hard to find and even harder to find freshly made Sheng jian bao might be one of the most difficult dumplings to get right. “I always missed one thing we cannot find in the United States, which is pan-fried small bao, we call sheng jian bao,” Chin Yu Yeh said during our visit. “If you ask people from Shanghai, ‘What do you miss?’ Sheng jian bao.” The sheng jian bao at Kang Kang Food Court are crunchy and soupy, chewy and perfect.
