The History of Din Tai Fung: Overcoming Challenges Through the Years Began as a Cooking Oil Shop
◎Din Tai Fung traces its origins back to 1958, when founder Yang Bing-Yi, originally from Shanxi Province, China, opened a cooking oil shop. After moving to Taiwan in 1948, Mr. Yang worked as a delivery staff member for an oil wholesaler, where his diligence earned him increasing responsibilities. However, when the company dissolved due to a failed investment, he and his wife opened their own oil shop. The name “Din Tai Fung” was derived from the former company’s name and the oil supplier.
◎Transformation into a Xiao Long Bao Restaurant The oil business initially thrived, allowing the purchase of the current Xinyi store location. Even today, the original “Din Tai Fung Oil Shop” sign remains at the entrance. As packaged cooking oil became popular and sales declined, the business began selling Xiao Long Bao as a side venture in 1972. Despite minimal advertising, word of mouth spread rapidly thanks to its focus on quality ingredients and fillings. By the 1980s, Din Tai Fung had fully transformed into a Xiao Long Bao specialty restaurant.
◎Selected as One of the “World’s Top 10 Restaurants” by The New York Times On January 17, 1993, Din Tai Fung was featured by The New York Times as one of the world’s top 10 restaurants, the only Chinese-cuisine restaurant on the list. This recognition propelled the brand to international fame.
◎First Overseas Expansion in Japan In 1996, Din Tai Fung opened its first overseas location at Tokyo’s Takashimaya Times Square. Since then, it has expanded worldwide, including China, the United States, Singapore and so on. Today, Din Tai Fung operates over 160 locations globally, making it the world’s largest Xiao Long Bao restaurant brand.
◎Why Is Din Tai Fung Loved Worldwide? A Favorite Among Celebrities Din Tai Fung has locations across Japan, the U.S., Korea, Singapore, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, Thailand, Macau, and more. Loved by celebrities and Hollywood stars alike, it remains packed even with wait times of one to two hours. In 1993, it was the only Chinese-cuisine restaurant selected as one of The New York Times’ “World’s Top 10 Restaurants,” cementing its reputation as the pioneer that made Xiao Long Bao synonymous with Taiwanese cuisine.
◎The Secret Behind Its Xiao Long Bao Din Tai Fung is uncompromising in taste, shape, and quality. Strict recipes ensure the same flavor at every location, with ingredients measured to the nearest 0.1 gram. Each Xiao Long Bao features exactly 18 pleats, known as the “Golden 18 Folds.” The five refined techniques—rolling, kneading, filling, pleating, and steaming—represent the pinnacle of Din Tai Fung’s craftsmanship.
When enjoying Din Tai Fung’s cuisine, take a moment not only to savor the flavors, but also to appreciate the precision, beauty, and dedication behind every dish.
