Takeout only and cheaper with cash. The vegetable bao was excellent.
warm soybean drink was good too
pork green onion dumpling was great. i want to try the shrimp chive one.
The steamed dumplings are the best in bay area. There are no seating in the restaurant though. You have to takeout. There is a small stone table next to the restaurant outside, which is convenient if you want a quick bite.
Takeout only. Every flavor of the bao is delicious. The cake with walnut and milk is also tasty. The owner is very creative in coming up with new recipes.
