Review from Tony L.
3/27/2012
I did not have the food here when it was Wang's, but I think that the food here is pretty good for the price. The pan fried dumplings, along with the mini-wontons, were good, but I really like the xiao long baos, especially for the price ($5 for 5). I like the XLB's at Shanghai River and Din Tai Fung better, but it is nice to go to a casual food court mall and eat inexpensively. There are a lot of different choices I do agree that the XLB's would taste better if they gave you some ginger to go along with the vinegar.

* Sad day *
Oh no! Wang's closed up shop?!?!?!?!?! This was one of my favourite places for xiao long bao in the Vancouver area: http://www.yelp.ca/biz...
In its place is a spot called Xu's Wonton House. At quick glance everything looked the same. But the quality of the food wasn't sadly. I ordered the xiao long bao ($4 for 5). They cut costs a bit and didn't provide a spoon or a bowl to catch any leakage when you bite into it. There also wasn't any ginger (either in the vinegar or in the meat filling). The skins were a bit sloppy and dried out at the clumpy tip. The broth was not as rich and flavourful. Things have sadly gone downhill. It is a sad sad day.
