Nanxiang Mantou Dian (Yu Garden)

Nanxiang Mantou Dian is a century-old xiaolongbao (soup dumpling) house in the Yu Garden bazaar, Huangpu, right beside the zigzag bridge. The brand dates to 1900 and carries the Nanxiang steamed-bun tradition that made Shanghai soup dumplings famous; it appears in the Michelin Guide. The ground-floor window sells takeout baskets to the queue, while the upper floors seat you for crab roe and pork versions, around 35 RMB and up for six. Come at opening time or mid-afternoon, the bridge-side queue at lunch is real.
