Anyone up for Xiu Long Bao? I’m always a big fans of Xiu Long Bao and in Malaysia we are grateful to have 2 type of Xiu Long Bao which one is from Shang Hai (Dragon-i) and DIN TAI FUNG (Taiwan). Since DTF opened, I never really have a chance to go and try out the ones in The Gardens Mid Valley Megamall. Everytime I get turned off by the que. Currently that is the only outlet in Malaysia.

I had mine in Singapore Orchard Road outlet previously cause I travel there for business trip. So basically this is the first time I get to try the Malaysia outlet. I am very honored to be invited for a food tasting session and meet the owner of Malaysia franchise Ms Lim Meng Lu via the intro by my fellow blogger Sean from Makanlah.
The Restaurant During Peak Hours … Loud and lively ambience just like any other Chinese restaurants in Taiwan but service still remains top notch and efficient

Always eat at those Tai Tong or Oversea very boring. This is more fun and variety.
I love eating at Din Tai Fung, I think it has the best xiao long bao.
