Look alive, xiaolongbao superfans: Din Tai Fung just released two small lines of limited-time apparel, including a dumpling-shaped plush bag. The limited-edition merch is only available at the restaurant’s brand-new location in Anaheim’s Downtown Disney District, which softly opened for reservations only on June 24. (The restaurant will be open to walk-ins beginning in July.)
The “DTF Essentials” collection consists of a green hat (pictured in the image at the bottom of this story); an off-white shirt with an embroidery patch of the very first Din Tai Fung location in Taipei on the front and a smaller secondary logo patch on the back; and a heavyweight black fleece hoodie with a similar embroidery patch of the Taipei original in the back and a red white logo in the front.
The character-driven Anaheim Collection, named for Din Tai Fung’s soon-to-open location, includes the aforementioned bag; two keychains (pictured below); a heavyweight crewneck (pictured in the hero image); a heavyweight jersey T-shirt with both youth and adult sizes (pictured above); and a forest green baseball hat (pictured below and in the hero image). All of the pieces in the Anaheim Collection feature Bao Bao, the Taiwanese restaurant chain’s cartoon mascot.
Pricing for both apparel and accessory lines have yet to be announced.
