I travel the world Part 19: Din Tai Fung (Taipei)
One of my all-time favorite dishes are DIM SUM. I have eaten at approx. 100 Dim Sum shops all over the world, but I rate Taipei Din Tai Fung as one of the best in the world.
The Main House is an old building and which is always packed with a waiting time of min. 30 Minutes.
Its Hongkong Branch received a Michelin Star, so i think this is the cheapest meal you could ever have in a 1-Star Michelin Restaurant.
To avoid the wait, my work around is going to the 101 Branch of Din Tai Fung as it offers almost the same quality as the Main Branch.
HOW TO EAT DIM SUM
Very modern shop (the Main Branch looks so weak, I am always afraid the building will collapse, so I like the 101 Branch)
Xiaolongbao 小笼包 (filled with a super delicious soup)
Dumpings with Shrimp
Perfect mixed fried rice with shrimp and chicken
Having visited around 10 Din Tai Fung restaurants all over the world, I only recommend the 101 Branch and the Main Branch (If you have the time to wait 30-60 Minutes, please go to the Main Branch) .
The dumplings are to kill for! I have eaten 30 of them once, because i could not stop...
I tried the Michelin star rated Hongkong Branches, but they were not close to the quality of the Main Taipei branch.
