Man Man Tang Bao is a hole-in-the-wall eatery specializing in xiao long bao, congee and tangyuan. For such a tiny shop, they still do wrapped and steamed to order soup dumplings. Heading up the age-old recipe is proprietor Mr. Li, who’s been in Shanghai since the 90s making the same dumplings, and currently runs the shop with his son. The best part about Man Man is that it is open late and delivers (via Shansong)! Back in the day, it used to be 24/7.

The xiao long bao are excellent and super cheap, and Mr. Li also offers a vegetarian version, made with Shepherd’s Purse. Congee and Chinese breakfast foods are served in the morning. The black sesame tangyuan are also worth trying. Pull up a stool, order from the picture menus, and grab your drinks from the convenience store next door.
