My mum always buy bao from this stall home whenever she goes Tiong Bahru Market since it's quite near my house and I've been eating it for years. Now, I seldom eat baos, but whenever I eat it, it is most likely from this stall. The char siew bao is a must try as the fillings is different from that of other stalls. It is really delicious and the char siew is really "fragrant". I like the sauce they use for the char siew too.
Also the siew mai is not bad as well. Quite big and juicy. Give it a try if you're at Tiong Bahru Market!
The paus there is seriously nice! but one must watch his or her wallet, as they are quite expensive.
If you are going down to have a try at its paus, i should recommend its char siew pau and its siew mai. They are really great! if you are those big eaters, maybe you should try the luo mai kai and fan choy. they are irresistible!
One thing you should really take note is that do not buy it at the end of the day. I bought it like a couple of times, but it does not turn out as well as it is.
Overall, it is a shop that is really worth its food! if you compare it with the restaurants, of course!
The "Bao"s are really nice, especially Char Siew Bao, the bao is soft and the fillings are chewy! Yum! Yum! The fillings for the char siew bao is different the the typical char siew bao, you can find elsewhere, its not red, but dark soya sauce colour. It is must try!
I also tried the Har Gow(prawn dumping), but i think this is really a letdown. I did not know that Har Gow has no prawn inside. They change the fillings to meat fillings, they should have told me that before i even order. But it should be called Bak Gow( meat Dumpling ) then. No doubt, it is still nice.
bao is what i love,and how i prolly look like,tummmy yummy,i don't know what to say,but bao is what i ate since childhood,and many baos around are just not having the standard these days,my dad used to buy for me baos from this stall back home,the servings are really good i guess,not sure aobut the price
This stall was highly recommend by my friend. He has been patronizing this store regularly for some time and one day he actually bought some dim sum from this stall just for me to try them out. From then on, i am hooked.
They got quite a few varieties of baos but i highly recommend just one type of bao, that is the 'char siew bao'. This is one of their best seller bao too.
Their 'char siew bao' is very different as compared to the normal 'char siew bao'. For example, the size of the bao are significant smaller than the normal 'char siew bao'. Well, guess its because of the small size, that why one 'char siew bao' is never enough for me. hee hee.
Their fillings is also very different. Gone were the red colour char siew, their dark soya sauce colour char siew is much more tasty. Gone were the dry char siew, their char siew were wet enough without sauce dripping out of the bao. Perfect.
Their skin is not as thick as compared to the other baos, so one will get a good combination of fillings and skin. Their bao's skin also has a glossy effect which makes the bao look more appetising.
Guess, the most important factor on why i loved their 'char siew bao' is the freshness of their bao. Beside steaming their bao every morning, they also continue steaming during the day to ensure a fresh continuous supply of bao is provided for his customers. A rather good move to lure his customers back again and again.
