They have a large selection of steamed baos, buns, and various other baked goods. I had their BBQ Pork, Ube Bean, Chicken Deluxe, and Racy Yolky Bao. The baos were all fantastic: soft and fluffy, and stuffed with a generous amount of tasty filling. The prices are very fair. All in all, I highly recommend checking this place out. <br/ <br/ BBQ Pork Bao $2.75):<br/ 4/5<br/ The bun was very fluffy and soft, with a great chewy texture. It was filled with a great amount of pork. The pork was tender and had a great bit of sweetness to it.<br/ <br/ Ube Bean Bao $2.05):<br/ 4/5<br/ Again, there was a good amount of filling inside. The ube was creamy and sweet. It might be a bit on the sweeter side for some people, but I quite enjoyed it.<br/ <br/ Chicken Deluxe Bao $3.60):<br/ 4/5<br/ This contained BBQ pork, salted egg yolk, and ham. Again, the bun was filled with a good amount of meat. The meat was flavourful, tender and juicy; there also seemed to be some water chestnuts inside that provided a bit of crunch.<br/ <br/ Racy Yolky Bao $2.90):<br/ 4.5/5<br/ This was filled with custard and salted egg yolk. The custard was sweet and creamy, while the egg yolk was oily and provided a great saltiness to balance the sweetness. This is definitely a great twist on the regular custard version.<br/ <br/ Summary:<br/ Food: 4/5<br/ Price: 4/5<br/ Service: N/A<br/ Overall: 4/5<br/ Recommendations: Baos favourite was racy yolky)
