When I went out yesterday morning, I noticed that the local Xiao Long Bao shop had re-opened after being closed for a week for the Chinese New Year / Spring Festival holiday. I'd already eaten breakfast, but promised myself I'd go this morning.
It had been raining, so she didn't have her sidewalk tables set out. No problem. I got my buns "to go". Here's her "cooker" in close up.
And my buns with chilli dip. A bit deformed from the journey home.
