Restaurant
Yong Zhou Ji Bian Rou (Jinrong South Road)
Despite a very low-key ambiance, this shop in a residential neighbourhood has built a loyal following courtesy of its mini wontons called bian rou, made fresh daily in-house. Bouncy pork filling is enrobed in a translucent, wafer-thin wrapper made with starch and ground pork, served in umami-laden pork bone broth. On top of that, order blanched noodles tossed in sauces, soy-marinated egg, or blanched pork with tendon attached that boasts springy texture.
Michelin's Bib Gourmand marks good quality meals at moderate prices, focusing on value without star-level prestige.
