Chinatown & Steamed Buns Obsession

Yokohama's Chinatown is the largest in Asia and one of the largest in the world - and it is indeed enormous!  We decided to spend our afternoon working our way through the narrow streets, stopping at shops, visiting the Kan-Tei-Byo and Mazu Miao temples, watching the hustle and bustle around us, and sampling the culinary specialty of the neighborhood - steamed buns.  The pics are of the Goodwill Gate  (there are 9 gates in total), the streets, some ducks waiting to be prepared (I saw these from an alley and when I peeked in further I saw twelve more hanging right inside - did not tell Connor they were duckies!), and Mazu Miao Temple:

During our time wandering around, we noticed almost everyone around us eating buns that looked to be stuffed with something.  In many of the shops you could see teams of workers making these buns next to bamboo steamers with steam puffing all around them.  Before leaving Chinatown, we chose a vendor to purchase a couple from to see what they were all about.  These steamed buns are so good that after my first bite, I gave Connor a small bite, and then he frantically flailed his arms until he had devoured at least half of mine.  We have never seen him so excited about a food item before.  That was when we decided to go right back and purchase four more.  They were all filled with different things, but we agreed on a favorite version and I think it was stuffed with chicken, mushrooms, ginger and scallions.  We ate a few on the way home, and then Connor ate another one with his dinner.  I think he is having dreams about steamed buns right now, and I just might too:
