Opened in 1986. The original shop at 90 Huanghe Road became a different dumpling place (Jia Le Tangbao) around 2020; Jia Jia now trades about 50 m away at No. 127. A big sign reads 现包现蒸, wrapped and steamed to order. Sit down, scan the QR code on the table, and a bamboo steamer usually lands within ten minutes. The golden crab noodles get as much talk as the dumplings. From 7:30 a.m. the room fills with locals, takeaway customers and travellers.
