1st FRIED CHICKEN BAO

Insane delicious. Crunchy, tangy, smoky goodness. Bright flavour. Not greasy at all.
2nd CLASSIC BAO

Das original... Smooth, nutty, porky goodness in a perfectly steamed bun.
3rd BEEF SHORT RIB BAO
BAO Fitzrovia, London
Soooooooo incredibly delicious. So many layers of flavour, and amazing texture! Lovely.
4th LAMB SHOULDER BAO
BAO Soho, London
Savoury and sweet, jalapeno adds a nice touch.
5th CHAR SIU BAO
Lo's Noodle Co Ltd, London
Hot off the steamer... This place is not a shop - no storefront, no seats - but they'll sell you six of these in a bag out of their factory door!! And OMFG they are amazing!! Best char-siu bao I've had in town. Huge chunks of meat, not shredded pieces of things supposed to be pork and certainly no silly food colouring here!! šŸ‘šŸ¼šŸ‘šŸ¼šŸ‘šŸ¼šŸ‘šŸ¼šŸ‘šŸ¼

8th AMY YIP BIG PAU
Let's Eat! @ DUO, Singapore
Like Amy Yipā€™s... umm... N1ps, theyā€™re big! To give you an idea of size, thatā€™s a whole, normal-sized boiled egg in the middle of the massive meat filled bun right there. WTF?! As a grown man, I struggled with just half of this. I guess more than a handful, I mean mouthful, I mean... oh, I give up! It was pretty tasty, but nothing to write home about šŸ¤ŖšŸ¤ŖšŸ¤ŖšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
9th PORK AND CHINESE GREENS BUN
Xi Home Dumplings, London NW9 0FH
Lots of filling, but wish the bread were a bit thinner. Great flavour!
