It wasn't planned but for some strange reason I ended up awash in dumplings by the end of the day. Dim sum at China Village kicked things off with Shanghai Dumpling Shop the finale. Both places were super satisfying and a nice way to spend the bulk of my Sunday. Okay, I did find other things to do during the day besides eat which makes everything seem a bit more acceptable (and it IS the holidays after all).
China Village
600 Ralston Avenue
Belmont, CA 94002
Today we made a run through all my favorites and then came back for a second dish of the fried tofu with shrimp and green onion garnish. It was a combo of crunchy, creamy and well-seasoned goodness in small bites. I admit it, I am still thinking of that dish and it's almost 11pm (yikes!)
Shanghai Dumpling Shop
455 Broadway
Millbrae, CA 94030
The pork dumplings are a "must try" item on the extensive - and inviting - menu. Had I not gone overboard at China Village earlier in the day I might have ordered more. Instead we settled for the pork dumplings and ma po tofu (whoooo...spicy!) I loved this place and can't wait to return.
Hint: get there early. The place was PACKED when we left (around 7:30 on a Sunday evening).
