Suginami City, Tokyo, Japan｜Dapaidang 105 Koenji

Can't comment on the authenticity but for 1000ish yen, the dumpling, noodle, and drink set filled me up, tasted great, and seemed good value.

Tried their fried xialong pao! Still good even during take out. Will try their bento lunches next time that has xialong pao, choice of meat and choice of either fried rice or noodles. Will order again.

I was careful to poke a hole and release the soup before I bit into it, but the fried xiaolongbao still came out with a lot of force. Apron is required. Mapo rice is also recommended!
