The key to its excellent flavor lies in its ingredient choosing, mixing, as well as dough making. They are all of special skills, especially the symmetrical wrinkles of the stuffed bun, with over 15 on each of the steamed stuffed bun. "Goubuli Stuffed Bun" Restaurant was first called "Dejiuhao", and had a history of over 100 years.
At that time, the manager's name is Gao Guiyou, "Gouzi (In Chinese, it means Dog.)" is his nickname. His stuffed buns are much loved by the customers. The restaurant becomes co prosperous that "Gouzi" is too busy selling his stuffed buns to have time to talk with customers. And people play joke at him, "Gouzi " is selling his stuffed buns, and has no time to talk to the customers (In Chinese, it means the dog doesn't respond.). With the pass of time, people are used to calling the name, "Goubuli". With his stuffed bun becomes famous, the name of Gao Guiyou comes to be forgotten.

Steamed Stuffed Bun That "Dogs Are Not Interested In" (Gou Bu Li Bao Zi)
It is a regret not eating Gou Bu Li Bao Zi if you come to Tianjin. What makes it so delicious is that all steps of the processing, including the selection of materials, mixing, stirring, rubbing and rolling, involve special techniques.
More than 100 years ago, there was a man named Gao Guiyou. When he was small, his father had also given him an infant name Gou Zi, which means ?°baby dog?±. After he grew up, he made a living on making buns with meat stuffing. His buns were very popular and his business was exceptionally good.
When he was doing business, he did not even have time to talk to his customers. People joked, "Gou Zi (baby dog) sells buns and heeds nobody." People simply said "Gou Bu Li Bao Zi" to reflect this, but its literal meaning is "stuffed bun that dogs are not interested in."
With the passage of time, his bun together with its name was more and more famous but people forgot Gao Guiyou's name. Historically, Gou Bu Li Bao Zi was also a favorite of Empress Dowager Cixi of Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Today, it is very popular with both Chinese and foreign visitors.
