If you haven’t had some sheng jian bao, a cross between a soup dumpling and a bao, put Little Pan’s version on your must-try list. Business owner Vicky Liu is from Shandong and grew up traveling to Shanghai to eat these pan-fried buns. She now draws on those formative experiences at her spots across from USC and Exposition Park and in Rowland Heights, where she took over the old Changsha Fever. Her sheng jian bao are textbook perfect: fluffy up top and crispy below and available with fillings like house special pork or shrimp with leeks and pork. You can also get mini pan-fried buns with chili sauce. If you’re in the mood for an all-dumpling meal, get the colorful boiled dumpling combo, with Spanish mackerel (red); beef and cabbage (yellow); pork and cabbage (purple); and shrimp, leek, and pork (green).

Everything I have tried over several orders is delicious! Mapo Tofu is flavorful and spicy, but just spicy enough for my taste. Shrimp Fried Rice is fresh and yummy. Scallion Pancake is crispy and a generous serving.

So glad I found this place! The spicy A Cup Mini Pan Fried Beef Bun In Chili Sauce (15Pcs) was sooo good! It was nice and fresh. Perfect late night fix. The thai tea was the perfect rotation! Definitely ordering again.

Bite sized and delicous. The gold wasnt really needed since it was so little that it didnt really add any allure to the way the dish looked. However the flavor of the soup inside with its subtle taste of truffle was divine. The beef was also very delicous!

Everything was amazing and I was super impressed with how good it was all packaged to arrive hot and without any spills including the 酸汤馄饨/Hot and Sour Wonton Soup and a cup of 一杯拇指生煎 / a Cup of Mini Pan-fried Bun
