What travelers say:
The waiting line for food is always surprisingly long at [Longtang Xiaowonton Restaurant]. I can only say that there are so many people who have fallen in love with this bowl of Xiaowonton!
👉 Xiaowonton
You can only get its special clay pot wonton after 14:00 every afternoon, and at other times, you can only eat the standard version of Xiaowonton~
It is still hot without a clay pot, a mouthful of wonton and a mouthful of soup, and there are full of egg skin shreds and seaweed, the first choice for warming the heart and stomach in winter.
Sprinkle with fresh spicy powder, the standard of Xiaowonton, and it is done✅
👉 Scallion oil noodles
I went late and missed its smoked fish topping. I had to temporarily replace it with spicy meat, which has a slightly sweet taste and a slightly thick batter. It is the traditional taste of a very old Shanghai noodle restaurant.
However, compared with a certain spicy meat noodle of Nanbowan level in my mind, the gap is still very obvious.

The boss is very nice and has a very nice accent. The uncle and aunt from Shanghai have been making wontons for a long time! I heard that it has been open for decades and used to be in a residential house. The business has always been very good, the ingredients are very sufficient and delicious!
"Longtang Xiao Wonton" was originally hidden in a small alley in Jing'an Villa, and later moved to this store on the nearby Weihai Road. It is well-known in the wonton world of Shanghai. If you want to eat wontons here, you have to be able to queue up first. One of the standard dishes here is: Xiao Wonton + Fried Pork Chops (served from 3:30 pm).
Sometimes, the attraction of food is not only its deliciousness itself, but also the origin story behind it. They are also very "beautiful", with touching and taste bud charm. In the 1980s, Uncle Aqiao set up a wonton stall in No. 107 Jing'an Villa. At the end of 2013, Jing'an Villa was fully renovated, and Uncle Aqiao's wonton stall moved to No. 714 Weihai Road. The store is long and narrow, divided into two floors. Whether it is weekdays or weekends, it is very popular every day. Only cash is accepted for payment, which is a peculiarity. Uncle Aqiao, a Shanghainese uncle in the store, has a ruddy complexion and elegant clothes. He sits leisurely on a chair and chats with diners in Shanghainese. At noon, only scallion oil noodles with various toppings are served. The noodles are sufficient, the braised pork chops are thick, and the various toppings are thick and red, with authentic local flavors. At 3:30 pm, we started waiting for the special clay pot wontons + fried pork chops. Once the waiting time came, the second floor was full of diners, and those who came late could only queue outside the store. It is estimated that around 4 o'clock, clay pot wontons were served in an orderly manner from outside to inside, one table after another, and cash was paid at the same time, but fried pork chops still need to spend extra time waiting. The wonton skin is elastic, the clay pot soup is delicious and fragrant, and the egg strips and seaweed are sufficient, all because of Aqiao's "exquisite" wonton craftsmanship - bone soup, egg skin, dried shrimps and a handful of fragrant pepper powder. The fried pork chops are crispy and delicious, with thick meat, and a little yellow brand spicy soy sauce for dipping, the traditional old Shanghai way of eating. This alley wonton restaurant not only inherits the flavor of old Shanghai, but also carries the youthful memories and feelings of a generation.
As a breakfast shop that I am quite satisfied with, I have been to this alley wonton restaurant four times, spanning half a year in 2017 - I queued in the summer and sweated profusely; I queued in the autumn and was bitten by two mosquitoes; I wore a down jacket in the winter and still queued. People in Shanghai are still nostalgic in another way~ This shop is an old shop moved from Jing'an Temple. There are quite a few seats inside. There are two floors, and most of the time they are full. Unless it is close to closing time or there is a storm, it is hard to find a seat. Those who come to eat breakfast or have a snack include both elderly men and a large number of young and middle-aged people who follow the trend. After all, the taste is really good, and the skills are really good. The main products are small wontons, noodles and various toppings. The auntie who makes wontons has long had the spirit of the old charcoal seller. The skills of practice make the technique more and more fluent. She can make wontons with her eyes closed and the time is accurate. The wontons at 7 yuan a bowl are really good. The wontons are quite filling, and the egg shreds sprinkled into the soup are also substantial. Before you start eating, remember to drink a few sips of the egg shreds soup, which is added with seaweed, chopped green onions and coriander. It tastes fresh and warms the stomach. Then, a few wontons go down quickly, and you have a familiar and gentle taste. The wonton skin is slightly tough and not mushy at all. The filling inside also has enough meat flavor. The wonton is a circle larger than the average wonton, and the portion is just right. This bowl of Shanghai's daily warmth reminds me of the bowl of wontons I hurriedly ate in the morning when I was in elementary school~ As for the mixed noodles here, the scallion oil noodles are still good. The fried fragrant scallion oil can be smelled at once, and some pickles are added in it. If you want to eat it better, remember to add some spicy meat or braised meat, which is more comfortable to eat. The slight sweetness is actually acceptable. I ate it all in no time, leaving only the greasy corners of my mouth.
Internet celebrity restaurant. Many friends come here because of its reputation, and even bring their cameras to take photos. In fact, according to the menu, after 3 pm, only the "small wontons in clay pot" are available. But most friends come here just for the clay pot, and there is half a braised egg in the wontons. At noon, a bowl of noodles for 12 yuan comes with a bowl of seaweed and egg skin soup.
I have heard of it for a long time, but never had the chance to eat there. Sometimes I would forget about it when I passed by. Today, I happened to be there while doing business nearby. The wontons are as good as they are said to be. They are filled with egg skin and seaweed, and there is also half a tea egg. They are served in a casserole, which is very classy. However, the price is listed at 7 yuan, but it is actually 10 yuan now. The boss lady should change the price. Of course, 10 yuan is really not expensive. The braised pork ribs are really like what my mother cooked when I was a child!
