I was with the family this time, dining at Bushi Tei – one of those higher-end Japanese restaurants where you pay a fortune to eat a little. Actually, despite being expensive, I really enjoyed this meal. Service was almost impeccable – I really want to say it was perfect but nothing can compare to Gary Danko’s service – and the food tasted better than it looked, and boy did it look good!
The meal was okay and the service needed a little work, but at least I was around great company.
Thanks Weldon, Andy and Regina!

I’m on a mission to find the best Shanghai dumplings (小籠包) out there and what better way to search than to try out all the popular spots in San Gabriel Valley. I made sure to visit the top 4 Shanghai dumpling restaurants the region had to offer, and three happened to be right next to each other in the Prospect Plaza.
JONASAPPROVED Top 4 Shanghai Dumpling Restaurants (linked to their Yelp reviews):
1. J & J Restaurant
2. Mei Long Village
3. Din Tai Fung (Old location)
4. Dragon Mark (一條龍）
According to Chowhound, I still have two more places to try (that aren’t so popular):
Giang Nan / De Yue Lou
Ho Ho Kitchen
