Yubaosao

Wandering around Shapowei, I came to Yubaosao, which is also an old shop with good business. The taro buns here are very famous, and there are many traditional Xiamen snacks! The first time I ate taro buns, the taste was very special, salty and sweet, the taro paste was very fragrant, and there were a lot of rich ingredients inside. It was also delicious when dipped in sauce, and it was very comfortable to eat with fish ball soup!

Usually, we usually go to some exquisite Japanese food, Western food and dessert shops for dates. Occasionally, we also need to change our taste and try some Xiamen special snacks. This time, I bought some ordinary xiaolongbao and iron plate xiaolongbao. The taste is quite good. I feel that the iron plate xiaolongbao tastes better, fragrant and crispy, especially tasty. Be careful when eating, don't get burned by the soup of the xiaolongbao.

I like the taro buns here the most! As a taro lover, I think the taro buns here are really delicious. The taro is very fresh and soft, and there are various sauces for everyone to match, which is good!

The flavor of old Xiamen, the signature taro buns, topped with sweet and spicy sauce, mustard, coriander, and the taste of scallion oil and chili is completely unsavory, not spicy at all. I like the sweet and spicy sauce as always. What is more surprising is the mustard, which is added to the taro buns without any sense of disobedience! The mustard in the store is not the kind of green mustard added to the soy sauce and vinegar when eating sashimi. It should be mixed. The color is yellow, and it is not as pungent as green mustard. It is absolutely amazing with coriander! ! The skin of the taro bun will stick to the plate after it cools down. The taste is relatively soft and glutinous. If you eat carefully, you can also taste the taro particles. Although I prefer Q-elastic things, this skin unexpectedly makes me very satisfied. As for the fillings, although I tried very hard to distinguish, I still didn’t understand it. I only distinguished the most obvious tofu and bamboo shoots. Anyway, in the end, they all tasted the same when dipped in sweet and spicy sauce! Everything with sweet and spicy sauce is delicious! Taro buns are a specialty snack in Xiamen. I have only eaten two of them so far, this one and Jiawei Zaitian on Zhongshan Road. I personally think this one is better. Then I had a bowl of fish ball soup. The soup was light and not greasy. The fish balls were completely different from the ones I had in the north. Only one big one had stuffing, and the others were solid.

A small shop at the end of Shapo, with a small storefront. The aunt is a local and speaks Xiamen dialect, which makes her feel very friendly. They mainly make taro buns, meat dumplings, and shacha noodles. [Environment] The environment is average, with a few tables and a large space at the back. | Meat dumplings^ Ordinary meat dumplings are 7 yuan, with chestnuts and meat inside, and the taste is not bad. Xiamen sweet and spicy sauce and mustard are blended together, and the meat dumplings are simply perfect. It would be better if the glutinous rice was softer. | Dumpling soup^ 6 yuan, there are quite a lot of dumplings, the meat is relatively crispy, but the soup is not special. It can be eaten casually for lunch, and there is no service.

We went there to eat here because of its reputation. The taro buns were good, the shacha noodle soup was thick but not salty, the fish balls were fresh and chewy, and the oyster soup tasted OK. The only downside was that the restaurant was too hot! The boss saw that we were sweating and the children kept complaining about the heat, so he finally turned on the air conditioner.
