Comes out fast with substantial portions of fall-apart-tender meat and robust spicy-tangy-sweet flavors in a huge bowl. Do not miss this!

It’s made with that purple rice that I had never tried before is supposed to be healther for you. The purple rice but actually made it that much better with a hearty, springy texture. Filled with dried pork sung, fried cruller, and some crunchy pickled veggie if I remember correctly.

Also stuffed with minced pressed tofu and glass noodles in a potsticker-type skin. With two large buns per order, it’s almost too much. They will also serve you soybean milk hot or cold, which I like with the leek buns since I think of it as a brunch item.

I died and went to heaven. Instead of lotus seeds, we asked them to substitute homemade small sweet taro rice balls the owner told us they had that day and weren’t listed on the menu. This is the real deal, with the essence of red bean and taro perked up by the aroma of the grated tangerine peel which rose with the steam. (The second time I ordered this, they didn’t have the taro balls and they forgot the tangerine peels so it was disappointing.)
