Suzhou local restaurant with 80 years of tradition. Great fried dumpling(Shengjian Bao) and dumpling soup!! Always there is a waiting but worth waiting for it.
take not to bad
As a local, a cant lie, this joint is the OG of the OG, the most genuine Suzhou snacks you will find in the city, hidden inside a residential quarter every Suzhou locals know
My wife and i visited YaBa Sheng-Jian after we did a tour. Both very hungry and we saw a line of people so decided to join. Definitely not disappointed. The best dumplings ever and we have tried many through Asia. Biggest surprise so cheap for 10 dumplings. Inside is quite small but you would be really missing out if you failed to eat here.
