Xiao Long Bao is a staple of Chinese cuisine. Easy to make, but difficult to make perfectly, it has become a true art form. And Paradise Group might just have taken this art form to another level with their colourful xiao long bao.
Every bite is a new adventure with colourful xiao long bao
Typically, xiao long bao is handmade with precision and the utmost care. Served in a small basket (“xiao long”), the pork dumplings are usually eaten with vinegar and ginger garnishing.
While delicious as it is, Paradise Group’s 8 signature colourful xiao long bao pushes the flavour to another level. Each colour has its own distinct taste due to different ingredients.
