Richest Juiciest XLB in NYC

What would be your last meal on earth?

One of my dearest friends lives in New York City and when I get a chance, I would do a quick layover to visit her while I fly over to the east coast or Europe. She knows me well and she would always set aside at least one meal at my favorite restaurant for my favorite dish. I don’t order anything else at this restaurant other than this one item! I am talking about Joe’s Shanghai’s crab butter & pork soup dumplings (xiao long bao).

These are not ordinary XLB. This is the only XLB that’s qualified for the name “soup” dumplings. It requires skills and techniques to eat this XLB properly without wasting a drop of soup. Trust me, you want every drop of the richness and stickiness coated around your lips. The soup is the essence of the XLB – rich in crab butter flavor and well balanced with the juicy pork. These XLB are huge and full of soup.

It is wise to enjoy the XLB when they are hot and fresh out of the steamer.

Step 1 – Pick it up with the tong (this is how perfect the XLB is, the skin is just right to hold that spoon full of juice without breaking)

Step 2 – Place it on your spoon and bite of the tip

Step 3 – Here is the best part – suck up and slurp the soup slowly and let the richness coat around your lips (careful don’t burn your tongue)

Step 4 – Put a tiny small amount of ginger vinegar into the remaining pork dumpling so the vinegar is not so overpowering

Step 5 – Keep everything in your spoon and finish it off

Step 6 – Lick your spoon of course for that last drop of juice!

Genius yes? My god-daughter walked me through this step by step and that was the cutest thing ever…and effective! Eating XLB can be a daunting process and profound experience.

This is definitely a must-go place you should stop by when you are around NYC and it’s definitely the best XLB I have had.

Where is the best XLB you have had?  What would be your last meal on earth?

    If you happen to have a smaller home, or will work which
    has a smaller space, you will possess a lots of trouble determing
    the best furniture. Because of technology and improved civilization, it’s
    now possible to source for information about the Internet and through other public services.
    The anxiety then acts being a magnet drawing back a similar people you believe
    you threw away once you feel ignored you aren’t approved of
    if you decide to deviate through the path all your family members expect of you.

    Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I
    guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.

    I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything.
    Do you have any helpful hints for first-time blog writers?

    I’d genuinely appreciate it.

    First of all I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
    I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing.
    I’ve had difficulty clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out there.

    I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are
    generally wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?
    Kudos!

    I’m impressed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a blog that’s both equally educative
    and entertaining, and without a doubt, you’ve hit the nail on the head.
    The problem is something that not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about.
    I am very happy that I found this during my hunt for something concerning
    this.

    One day the professor asked a question “What is the central virtue for succeeding in life”.
    It appears sensible at face value but firstly it calls for merely the goal or even the objective also it doesn’t participate in you.
    If I wanted a Real Estate Investing coach a great deal of people would pick Robert Kiyosaki.
