For more than 2,000 years, Chinese chefs and home cooks have been perfecting dumplings in all their delicious bite-sized forms. Carried abroad by Silk Road travelers over the centuries, dumplings are popular around the world, but nothing tops the original! From streetside stalls frying up potstickers to dim sum mansions serving steamers of har gow (delicate shrimp dumplings), we’ll taste the best dumplings Shanghai has to offer, including the city’s famous xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) while ducking into a wet market, park, and old Shanghai neighborhood.
We will head to 4-5 dumpling stops, as well as a wet market so you can see how the locals grocery shop on this 3 hour tour.
All-inclusive package includes:
• UnTour Shanghai Welcome Pack
• All food & non-alcoholic drinks at 4-5 stops and transportation during the UnTour
• Post-Dumpling Delights UnTour details emailed to you, including recipes & digital photos
