shanghai fortune cuisine - Burnaby, British Columbia

Spent a few hours in the Crystal Mall on a Wednesday, and was so disappointed to see that Shanghai Dim Sum was closed for the day, my favorite XLB shop. Oh well, we ate some other delicious things, the standout was the shengjian bao, pan fried pork buns from Shanghai ... Fortune Cuisine. It was lined up and everyone in the rooms seemed to be eating them. Wow, they were good. Crispy on the bottom, tender on top, full of soup and pork. Delicious. Staff is friendly too! I think I found a new favorite. Read more

It’s a perfect XLB soup dumpling, freshly steamed to order. They are juicy with seasoned meaty flavour, a thin skin, and bursting with soup inside. In our opinion, it’s better than the Shanghai Dimsum House nearby which is also pretty good. Their tofu soup is also light and nice with boiled ... dumpling water flavour in a good way. It’s not too salty and hydrating with no hint of MSG. Read more

The Bun and dumpling is super juicy On top of the bun is crispy It’s palatable but the environment is not as good as eating in restaurent But the price is reasonable as it is located in Crystal Mall Food Court

Their pan fried pork buns are amazing. Super crispy on the outside, soft inside and rich soup leaking out from the first bite. Was amazed each time I bit in. Their spicy and sour soup was alright, but it didn't impress me like the fried buns. Service was alright, the typical Chinese ... service where everything is rushed and fast at pace. It's found in a food court so there really is no atmosphere, and the tables are quite full depending on what time you visit. I definitely recommend the pan fried pork buns. Haven't tried the other options like the noodles, which I saw comments about it on google, but I think trying their combo soup and fried buns is a very good first time pick. Food: 4.5/5 Cleanliness: no problem with the food. Price: $ Comeback rate: 80% Read more

Definitely try their stream dumpling, pan fried bun, and beef roll. Recommend the beef roll. The dumpling wraps are handmade (thicker), don't expect they look as look as those from DinTaiFung, but the taste is fine. There is great tasting soup in the dumplings. The buns also have soup and ... totally did not expect that. Oh, don't get the combo if you don't want MSG tofu soup. Read more
