Description: Dainty 小龙包 Xiao Long Bao dumplings with delicate flavours. We probably should have had more! The 原盅走地鸡汤 free-range chicken soup was quite flavoursome, especially when served with a dash of Chinese rice wine. The Shanghainese-style noodles were super-smooth and extra slippery. They were also extremely white, lacking in the nutty flour flavour, and had a faint tinge of chlorine, perhaps because it was bleached flour. Unbleached flour would probably have been tastier. The 虾仁炒饭 fried rice with shrimp and 干煸四季豆 dry-fried French Beans were ok, nothing special. We finished with a 红豆酥 Golden Red Bean Bread with was crunchy fried bread encasing smooth sweetened red-bean mash. Very nice, and not too greasy either. The taro-filling in the 芋泥小龙包 Taro Xiao Long Bao was very smooth, but the wrapper didn't provide enough textural contrast. 鼎泰丰 Din Tai Fung Restaurant (02) 9264 6010 World Square Shopping Centre Shop 11/ 644 George St Sydney NSW 2000 www.dintaifung.com.au/
