The fact that it's only 330 yen for a meal is surprising, but every menu item is so delicious. Last time I came at night, it was still before 7pm and they were already sold out, so this time I came during the day. The Zhajiangmian, boiled dumplings, and pan-fried soup dumplings were all amazing! I also got some takeout on my way home and enjoyed the pan-fried soup dumplings at home. I'll definitely come back again!

In the morning, suddenly invited the old men for lunch. Thank you for waiting in line for us in the scorching sun. It's been a while since I had xiaolongbao. It was so delicious that it burned my mouth, and all the thin skins peeled off. Recommended by the old men, it's a sure thing!

On Sunday at 18:00, I went to "Rontan Senchen Mantou" in Minami Morimachi. I ordered "Grilled Xiao Long Bao (600 yen)" and "Homemade Juicy Dumplings (400 yen)". Payment was made in advance. The food arrived in 7 minutes. I took a bite of the "Grilled Xiao Long Bao" and it was delicious. The meat juice soup overflowing from the skin was rich in flavor with plenty of collagen. Be careful not to burn your mouth as the soup is very hot. The thick skin is filled with a generous amount of meat filling, making it satisfying to eat. You can enjoy different flavors by adding black vinegar or chili oil. According to the description, they use 100% domestically sourced pork and carefully selected wheat flour, all handmade. In addition to the collagen soup overflowing from the Mantou, you can enjoy the crispy texture of the grilled side and the chewy texture of the front side. Next, I took a bite of the "Homemade Juicy Dumplings" and it was also delicious. The thick and chewy skin was filled with juicy meat filling. However, the "Grilled Xiao Long Bao" is truly the specialty and addictive. I would be satisfied with just that and a beer. There are often long lines during weekends, but weekdays or Sunday nights are recommended. Thank you for the meal.

There was one group waiting in front of us. There were quite a few takeout customers as well. Upon entering the restaurant, you order and pay at the register. The size of the pan-fried dumplings was quite large and satisfying. The soup inside was slightly sweet and delicious. Be careful not to burn yourself!! They are delicious as they are, but adding the black vinegar provided at the table halfway through adds another dimension of flavor and makes it even more delicious.

I really wanted to eat xiaolongbao, so I went to this restaurant! The xiaolongbao with overflowing meat juice was delicious! The chimaki and mixed soba were also tasty! And it was so cheap! It cost about 2000 yen for two people. They also offer takeout, so it's perfect for a snack with drinks.

I visited a magical restaurant ⭐︎ and tried their grilled soup dumplings. When you bite into them, hot meat juice overflows. The skin is thicker compared to steamed soup dumplings, so it's more satisfying to eat. Especially, the Zhajiang noodles were delicious. I want to try all the menu items. - Grilled soup dumplings (6 pieces) 600 yen - Boiled dumplings (6 pieces) 400 yen - Shanghai rice dumplings 420 yen - Zhajiang noodles 500 yen

Lunch was delicious with pan-fried dumplings and Jajamen (noodles with meat sauce). The total bill was 1,620 yen for 2 people. The pan-fried dumplings were 400 yen and the Jajamen was 500 yen. We also had a draft beer for 330 yen and a Shanghai highball for 390 yen. The soup in the pan-fried dumplings was amazing! The Jajamen had a good flavor and the portion size was just right.

I came to the restaurant around 3 PM on Saturday because I wanted to eat the hot food after enjoying the takeout last time. The hot food was delicious. I ordered pan-fried soup dumplings, boiled dumplings, Szechuan ramen, and spicy noodles. The Szechuan ramen had a sour taste.

Specializing in grilled xiaolongbao. Ordered Shanghai sticky rice in addition to xiaolongbao. It came out in just 15 seconds haha. The xiaolongbao has a crispy skin and a chewy texture. It's delicious. I refrained from beer since it's lunchtime, but I envy the person next to me enjoying a draft beer. The sticky rice also has juicy roasted pork inside and it's delicious. This would go great with a beer too.

Today I had two more training sessions scheduled. I put a lot of effort into searching for a lunch spot since the day before. I decided on a place that looked delicious for mapo tofu! I took a one-stop train ride and used navigation to arrive at the restaurant, only to find a sign saying they were closed (;_;) I double-checked and it said they were open until 2:00, but what time is it now? 13:57? Oh no, I thought the training ended at 1:30 (＞Д＜；) I got confused... I'm too tired to walk far now (ToT) What should I do... Oh, I remember seeing a shop selling grilled xiaolongbao on the way. It caught my interest. Let's go there! I checked the menu in front of the shop. Grilled xiaolongbao and... should I choose between Zhajiangmian or Hot and Sour Noodles? Hmm, which one should I go for? I've never tried Hot and Sour Noodles before. Maybe I'll go with Zhajiangmian. As soon as I entered the shop, I found out that it was a self-pay type at the counter. I ordered 4 xiaolongbao and... for some reason, I blurted out Spicy Cold Noodles! Maybe because I didn't feel cold while walking? I sat at the counter and the grilled xiaolongbao arrived immediately. There were instructions on how to eat them written down. It said to poke a hole first because it's hot, and then sip the soup. I followed the instructions. I put my mouth on the small hole and sipped. Ouch!! But it's delicious! The sesame seeds on the surface also enter my mouth, making it even more delicious. Hot food should be eaten while it's hot! I finished the soup and then took a big bite of the xiaolongbao. It wasn't very chewy, and the crispy bottom part stood out. The meat filling was well seasoned and tasty. Now, onto the Cold Noodles. I mixed the noodles and sauce with the scallions without breaking the soft-boiled egg. Hmm, it's not too sweet, not too spicy, and has a hint of garlic. It's very refreshing. The noodles are thin and don't have a strong flavor. There's also something like chicken ham that tastes just like it looks. I tried dipping the xiaolongbao in black vinegar, but I think the acidity of the Cold Noodles is enough, so you don't really need it. Mixing it with the soft-boiled egg removes the refreshing taste, so I think the egg wasn't necessary for these noodles. I also enjoyed the exotic atmosphere with the staff speaking Japanese with a Chinese accent. I ended up with a burnt upper palate from the hot food, but it was a delicious meal. Thank you.

14:25 on a weekday, there wasn't much of a line. It's like a hamburger shop where you pay first and they bring the food to your table. The kitchen staff speak Chinese. There's one chef, four staff members, and they're busy making xiaolongbao dumplings. The spicy bamboo shoots cost 200 yen and come in a cheap red tray with a small hole where delicious golden soup comes out. The soup is sweet, the dumplings with a crispy bottom are a bit tough. The draft beer is cheap at 330 yen, and after two drinks, I accidentally spilled soup on my clothes because I bit into a dumpling too quickly when it was still hot. Just like the warning says, be careful when eating. It was tasty. Thank you for the meal.

As I was walking towards Umeda from Temmabashi Station, I came across a pretty big crowd. It was around 11:20 AM, and there were lines of 5-6 people each for both dining in and takeout. It seemed to be a Shanghai cuisine restaurant, with xiaolongbao being recommended. Even though it wasn't in my plans, I decided to line up for takeout since the turnover seemed fast. In less than 10 minutes, it was my turn, and I ordered 4 pieces of pan-fried xiaolongbao. The xiaolongbao seemed to be constantly being cooked, and they were served promptly. I decided to eat them at a small table outside the restaurant. There was a sign on the exterior wall explaining how to eat xiaolongbao, warning not to bite into it right away to avoid burning yourself. When I pierced it with my chopsticks, steam and soup overflowed. After letting it cool a bit, I sipped the remaining soup inside. Delicious! The skin was chewy, and the filling was moist, making me want to eat more! It was an impromptu snack, so my partner and I only had 2 each, but next time I want to sit down inside and try various other menu items.

Visited Longtan for their delicious xiaolongbao. First, poke a hole in the xiaolongbao to savor the flavorful soup inside. It was tasty on the first bite. Then enjoy the xiaolongbao itself, which was even more delicious. Each piece had a decent amount of filling, making it cost-effective. It was so good that I want to visit again. A great item for takeout to serve at a home party. Thank you for the meal.

After finishing a six-month training program successfully, I stopped by for a solo celebration. I first ordered xiaolongbao and zongzi because I was hungry. Both dishes were served quickly. I enjoyed the xiaolongbao carefully to avoid spilling the juicy filling. The filling and the skin were delicious, with the slightly thicker, pan-fried skin providing a good chewy texture. The zongzi had an authentic taste and was served piping hot. I ate slowly and ended up feeling quite full from the glutinous rice. I would definitely want to visit this place again when I'm nearby.

A shop in Minamimorimachi that serves delicious and cheap grilled xiaolongbao. Each one costs only 100 yen. Amazing!!!

Cheap, hot, and delicious. Packed with plenty of meat filling, each one is substantial. I prefer them steamed, but occasionally they're great grilled too. This is the top choice for a nearby shop I'd like to have. By the way, they are hotter than expected. Make sure to soak up all the meat juices or they will end up spilling out.

On my way home from work, I was planning to stop by Senbayashi to eat some boiled dumplings, but I had to go to Minami-Morimachi for an urgent matter, so I took the Tanimachi Line in the opposite direction. After finishing my business, I looked at the clock and it was already 7:30 pm. I debated whether to continue to Senbayashi or to eat in the Minami-Morimachi area. When I searched for "Minami-Morimachi boiled dumplings," I found a restaurant that caught my eye, so I headed there right away. The location faced Keihan Kodo and was easy to find. There were about two customers ordering takeout in front of the shop. I peeked inside and saw that there were empty seats, so I quickly went in. I placed my order at the counter near the entrance. I had planned to eat boiled dumplings, but it seemed that the restaurant's specialty was pan-fried xiaolongbao, so I ordered boiled dumplings, 4 pan-fried xiaolongbao, and a Szechuan-style ramen. The pan-fried xiaolongbao arrived first, with instructions on how to eat them posted. Following the instructions, I tried the first one without any additional condiments. As I cautiously broke it open with my chopsticks, the juice squirted out. It was more amazing than I had expected. I proceeded more carefully with the second one. Since they were piping hot, I had to be careful not to burn myself. They were flavorful enough on their own, but they also tasted good with the provided vinegar and chili oil. The boiled dumplings and Szechuan-style ramen also arrived, adding more color to the table. The boiled dumplings, which I had been looking forward to, were bite-sized and slid down easily. I even tried putting some on top of the ramen, which was also delicious. During this season, I feel like eating cold noodles, although I end up sweating (laughs). Before I knew it, I had finished all the dishes, and my enjoyable solo feast time ended in no time. As the weather gets warmer, cold noodles sound appealing. Of course, having some beer with pan-fried xiaolongbao would be devilishly delicious. I would say that even if I don't have any business in Minami-Morimachi in the future, it's worth visiting this restaurant just for the experience. Repeat visit confirmed. Thank you for the meal!

The prices are reasonable, and the pan-fried soup dumplings are so juicy that the soup flies out. There are instructions on how to eat on the wall, so be careful not to burn yourself. The spicy noodles and Szechuan-style noodles were just right for someone like me who is not used to spicy food.

It was written all over to be careful of burns, so I ate it a bit nervously. - Zhajiangmian 500 yen The amount of Zhajiangmian was a bit disappointing. The slightly chewy noodles were to my liking, but the small portion was a drawback. 【Experience】 Eat-in and take-out are available. The store has counter seats facing the wall and table seats.
