Din Tai Fung

If you visit Taiwan, you must eat at Din Tai Fung.  With restaurants in several countries, including the United States, Din Tai Fung began in Taipei.  Specializing in xialongbao (steamed dumplings), people gather around the windows to watch employees shape the little dumplings.  They are steamed in traditional bamboo trays stacked several layers high.  The small ball of meat inside cooks, creating a nice broth.  The restaurant is always packed, but it's well worth the wait.
