101 South
Shanghai Dumpling Shop
455 Broadway, 1 blk. W of El Camino Real, (650) 697-0682. L-D daily; $. No reservations.
Some people who visit the small Shanghai Dumpling Shop manage to snag one of the booths, which are particularly comfortable after the usual wait to get in. The specialty dumplings are made fresh in the small kitchen and include Xiao Long Bao (juicy two-bite Shanghai steamed-pork dumplings) and Beijing-style boiled chives dumplings. (Having just returned from my first tour of China I can attest that these dumplings are superior to anything I tasted there.) An assortment of rice and noodle dishes (the stir-fried fat Shanghai noodles with pork are particularly tasty) and typical Chinese dishes round out the extensive menu.

A few doors down, Dean’s Produce (461 Broadway, (650) 692-1042.) displays colorful fruit and vegetables outside and offers plenty more inside along with exotic imported goods. More shops line the street.
More things to do in Millbrae.
More ideas for exploring Northern California.
