The Din Tai Fung menu at a glance
Din Tai Fung began in 1958 as a cooking-oil shop in Taipei run by Bing-Yi Yang and his wife, Pen-Mei Lai. In 1972 they gave half the shop to xiao long bao, the thin-skinned soup dumplings that now define the brand, and the oil business faded away. The first North American restaurant opened in Arcadia, California, and the U.S. menu now stretches well past dumplings into noodles, wok-fried rice, greens and dessert buns.
Prices here are typical U.S. estimates; Din Tai Fung does not post prices on its main website, and costs can vary by location. The menu is the same at lunch and dinner. Plan on ordering family style: for two or three people, a basket of dumplings, a green vegetable, a noodle or rice dish and one dessert is a good start, and sharing keeps the check reasonable.
