    <description><![CDATA[Learning Mandarin is like climbing a mountain made of dumplings. And as with other mountaineering expeditions, it's necessary to study the landscape before starting the ascent. In this podcast, we unravel the mystery of the xiaolongbao, the Mount Everest of Chinese breakfast foods. Tip to the wise: if you can't smell the ocean, don't buy the ones with crab meat.

        <description><![CDATA[Oh Lester, be careful when reading my post. Read them as if you were searching for something wrong. In other words, assume I have written something wrong and try to find it.  Often, I post in hopes that some Cpod teacher will see my writing and correct my mistakes. This is in hope that I can be corrected and learn, but, the corrections rarely come:( and chances are, my Chinese sentences are NOT totally in line with a native writer:(

        <description><![CDATA[Da jia hao! Thanks for the great lesson on xiao long bao! I''ve  been eating these all my life. They bring me back to my childhood. IMHO, The heart of Shanghai lies in these little juicy morsels! The small talk in town (Bay Area, CA) is where one can find the best xiao long bao and other regional favorites - dou jiang, cong you bing, dun dun.

It's just a crab filling-- sometimes has crab roe in it as well.  But not powder.  You'll have to try them and find out ;)]]></description>
