My dad and I arrived at Little Bao a little before 6pm and were seated immediately at the bar table facing the wall. The bar stools were not very comfortable but bearable given the space and layout of the restaurant. The atmosphere was casual and easygoing, perfect for a light and probably fast meal for two. After witnessing so much hype over these baos on Instagram, I've been itching to have a try since several months ago, especially the popular ice-cream baos. The deep-fried baos were not grea
After witnessing so much hype over these baos on Instagram, I've been itching to have a try since several months ago, especially the popular ice-cream baos. The deep-fried baos were not greasy and were slightly hot to the touch when the desserts were served, making a nice contrast between the very cold and solid icecream and the crispy crunchy bao sandwiches. A lot of people comment that these dessert baos are very small for what they charge, but I think if they were any bigger it would not have looked as "cute" and would have weighted down the palette with too much bao. Being the green tea addict like so many nowadays, I myself preferred the green tea icecream bao.
The savoury items on the menu were also largely satisfactory, the only flaw being the barely lukewarm temperature in which the truffle fries were served. Something was amiss when I put some into my mouth without the typical flinching from the heat of the fries. The fries were not particularly crispy either given its thin cut. On the other hand, the dumplings were piping hot and as soon as you bit on the tender skin, sizzling beef juice spurted out which you could cool down a bit with the fresh coleslaw. The pork belly bao did not disappoint either given its juiciness and helpful flavouring from the accompanying ingredients, as well as the softness of the slightly buttered bao. Good that it wasn't sticky or soggy!We intended to go to other restaurants afterwards so we didn't fill ourselves to the brim, but the bill was still about $300 per person when we felt about 30%-40% full. I think I would go back if I was in the area but would not if I had to travel there distinctly for having Little Bao.
題外話/補充資料：
The toilet looked horrifying so I did my business at PMQ instead. No seriously, I think a restaurant's washroom speaks a lot for the restaurant itself.
