Mama's Lu - Monterey Park

Mama's Lu was the first stop of a Xialongbao crawl. Let me tell you all eight of us starved in the anticipation of having delivered good XLB and Mama Lu. The dumplings were placed in the steamed bamboo baskets, and long ago they were brought to our table. The pigs and the crabs were rich in comfort in their own broth. When eating XLB it is nice to take a bite and stuff the broth. Do not forget to use it with Chiankiang vinegar and slivers from ginger, which made available at the order. They were so good that I wanted to sit and enjoy the wonderful rich aromas Mom Lu has, but we had a plan and we wanted to stick to it.
