Must Eat Snacks in Shanghai Yu Garden

#traveldiaries When visiting Shanghai, Yu Garden is one of the must-see places, not just for its beautiful scenery but also for the amazing food. One of the top things to eat there is soup dumplings, also known as "xiao long bao." These dumplings are filled with juicy, flavorful broth and tender meat. The trick is to bite a little hole in the dumpling and slurp the soup before eating the whole thing. It's messy but so worth it! Another treat you shouldn't miss is the minced meat mooncake. While mooncakes are usually eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival, you'll find these savory versions year-round. They're stuffed with seasoned meat and wrapped in a flaky pastry. It's a bit different from the sweet mooncakes most people are used to, but they’re super tasty.
