How locals do it

The "soup-filled" school — aspic mixed into the pork filling bursts when you bite. First-timers: take a small bite first or you'll wear the soup. Locals pair it with hot-and-sour soup or beef soup.

Don't get this wrong

Never bite a whole bun straight away — the soup inside is scalding and it will squirt. The technique: nibble a small hole, sip the soup, then eat the rest dipped in vinegar.
