Now there is Little Bao which turns the boring steamed buns into burgers.
When I first saw the logo, it reminded me of the Jolibee logo and Chipmunks merged into one.
The menu is simple, some dishes for sharing, baos and dessert.
I was there for the Bao only so I tried the chicken one.

Chicken Bao:
Chicken, black vinegar glaze, szechuan mayo, napa cabbage, coleslaw.
It was definitely dinky and lives up to its name Little Bao.
I loved the texture of the steamed but, it was soft but not too soft that it held together well as a burger bun and the filling in the middle was amazing.
The crispy chicken was delicious with the tart medley of julienne cabbage and coleslaw with a gorgeous creamy taste that got jazzed up with szechuan mayo.
The szechuan mayo did not have a fiery tone but had a slow tingling sensation that accumulated when you finished the bun and there was a fragrant taste of szechuan peppercorn.
The only flaw was that it was not hot enough and to me it felt like an appetizer.

Anyway, there will be a similar Steamed bun shop coming up soon in Wan Chai, called Bao Wao.

They will make their 1st public appearance at PEZ HKC from 1830pm - 2030pm on the 15th November (one night only, $38 per bao).
During the opening period in Wan Chai, it will be HK$58 for 2 Baos.
As well as that I will be looking forward to their Asian poutine which will be taro fries topped with cheese and Korean style beef!
