As you pass by Minsheng East Road, you will see white smoke with a fragrant aroma rising from a stack of steaming baskets, which is the large stove of Xiao Shanghai Restaurant. The soup dumplings here are mainly flavored with dried scallops, offering a fresh and delicious seafood taste, along with a delicate texture and rich soup, which explains why they attract many food connoisseurs to taste them. In addition to the soup dumplings, another signature dish here is the triangular Huzhou zongzi. The sticky rice is soft yet not too mushy, with a filling of lean and fatty meats, which is not greasy at all. Each bite is filled with a strong bamboo fragrance, and it is naturally delicious without adding any seasonings. There is also the braised beef noodles, where the braised broth is relatively light, and the large pieces of beef with tendons absorb the essence of the broth, making it very satisfying to eat.
Xiao Shanghai Restaurant does not have an elaborate decoration; it has simple tables and chairs, combining white and brown colors, and the restaurant is very clean. Each staff member wears a white chef's hat to ensure hygiene quality. The service is also very efficient, so when you are hungry, you don't have to wait long to enjoy the delicious food.
