Shanghai Dim Sum

We decided to try some Shanghai dim sum the other day.  It is a bit different, maybe larger sized than the more common Chinese dim sum.  My sister had been talking about the famous soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao) or (XLB) and I don't seem to have a photo of it here. These are dumplings where soup is cooked with the meat inside it. So we made sure to order some of those.  Here are some of the other dishes we enjoyed. My favourite were the pan fried pork dumplings.   Apparently and unfortunately, even the steamed dishes are not deemed to be healthy.
