Din Tai Fung Dǐng Tài Fēng

I only went to this restaurant because I had a guest from out of town who really wanted to try DTF's famous xiaolongbao (soup dumplings). They do not offer a vegan option for that dish, but I was satisfied with their mushroom steamed buns, mushroom dumplings, and dessert XLBs (taro, red bean)! They also prepare their seasonal vegetables perfectly, and their kao fu appetizer is delicious as well. I am looking forward to trying their truffle and mushroom soup on my next visit. A helpful tip: if the wait is too long, consider ordering takeout instead!

The seasonal vegetables were cooked perfectly and their kao fu appetizer was delicious. I plan on trying their truffle and mushroom soup on my next visit. Pro tip: if the menu seems too overwhelming, ask for recommendations!
