About this place
Carried to the table amidst plumes of steam rising the moment the bamboo lid is lifted, the xiaolongbao are an essential first order at Senrima Juttoro. Their springy wrappers hold up well to chopsticks, keeping the piping-hot broth and savory pork securely contained until you transfer them to a soup spoon to enjoy bite by bite. The dim sum selection extends to jade-green spinach shrimp xiaolongbao, shark fin xiaolongbao, and shrimp and asparagus spring rolls, making it easy to sample a variety of steamed and fried bites.
For a hearty centerpiece to share, the black vinegar sweet and sour pork stands out with its lustrous glaze. Generously cut pieces of pork are fried crisp on the outside and coated in a sauce that balances mellow richness and sweetness without excessive acidity, keeping the dish light on the palate from start to finish. Diners looking for vibrant heat can turn to authentic Sichuan mapo tofu or sliced beef simmered in chili oil (shui zhu niu rou), spiced with Sichuan pepper and dried chilies—a satisfying match for a bowl of steamed rice or a cold beer.
When rounding out a meal or dropping in for an uncomplicated lunch, the noodle and rice offerings offer plenty of range. Highlights include vegetable dandan noodles fragrant with shrimp and crisp vegetables, hot and sour noodles with balanced tang and spice, and seafood gomoku ankake yakisoba topped with plump shrimp and a savory glaze. For rice options, choices run from light stir-fries like crab and lettuce fried rice or shrimp ankake fried rice to a soothing Chinese congee made with dried scallops, providing something fitting for any appetite.
Situated on the 1nd floor of Park Tower Kachidoki Mid, the restaurant features a clean, calm dining room appointed with private rooms and high chairs. Ending the meal with almond jelly or warm sesame dumplings, guests can settle in comfortably for everything from casual family dinners to relaxed group gatherings.
