Ordered the rice cakes with chicken, the rice cakes were perfectly chewy just the way I like it and wasn’t super salty like other Shanghai places I’ve tried. It also wasn’t drenched in sauce. If they gave a little bit more chicken it would’ve been better! The pork soup dumplings were delicious too! Just wished they were all stuffed a little bit more because they did seem a little bit small. The jellyfish was really good too, it was thick and had a strong vinegar flavor! Loved the music they were
Local Besonhurst favorite for Shanghainese dishes. They’re known for the soup dumplings and crispy wontons with peanut sauce. The hot and sour soup has good flavor and just the right about of spice too. My fiends always end up getting their mock duck- that’s made with tofu. The place is pretty small and right, so prepared to wait during dinner rush hours. They only have1 large table for groups of 10. The prices here are reasonable for the portion amount. No wonder why the locals love it here!
I love this Brooklyn gem! I come often with my family and friends, would say one of the best spots to get soupy dumplings in Brooklyn. Only thing is their new servers are a little bit slower but the food makes it up for it all. I would suggest anyone who’s trying it out for the first time to come early and avoid the wait. Being such a popular place wait times can get a little long. However the food always comes out fast, hot, and delicious.
