Din Tai Fung

108 S Baldwin Ave
Arcadia, CA 91007

Occasion: On the quest to find the best Xiaolong bao. We came here almost right after brunch so that Henry could try their XLB's. Our second meal of the day. 12. 07.11

 Green Tea Tapioca
Best I've ever had.  Chewy tapioca balls that tasted super fresh and green tea that was made to the perfect amount of sweetness. I think I'm in love.
Noodle with minced pork sauce
The fresh chewy and springy noodles mixed with the minced pork sauce was just perfect.  It wasn't overly done and the portion was a decent size considering the fact that we'd already had a pretty big breakfast.  I was full, but I couldn't stop eating it.  It was just so delicious!
 Pork Xiao Long Baos
I've had the crab one here before and was not a big fan of it, so we decided to order the pork.  I think they make really good XLBs with the perfect skin that's not too thick.  The XLBs are filled with flavorful pork meat that's filled with it's juicy soup.  Henry became a fan!
