There are so many neat things about Taiwanese restaurant Din Tai Fung, that it’s hard to choose a favorite. The fun mascot, the window on the way to your table that shows staff filling dumplings, the floor-to-ceiling windows, the list of playful cocktails, the much longer list of dumplings, the baskets arriving with your freshly steamed morsels … no need to choose, just take it all in.
Although Din Tai Fung has sections such as appetizers, soup, noodles and side dishes, one of the best ways to order is to choose several dumpling orders and supplement from the other menu areas. Each order contains several pieces, and some best bets would be either shrimp and korubuta pork wontons or dumplings; Jidori chicken dumplings; and vegetable and mushroom buns. Soups and noodles range from hearty options with slices of meat and veggies to the light vegetarian noodle soup that looks like an art piece.
Dessert options are all so delicious. Chocolate buns are a treat with melty chocolate oozing out, while the sesame bun is less sweet, but so excellent.
