Steve baked char siu bao is one of my favorites and I look for it when I have dim sum. I also like the Pineapple char siu bao. Sweet and savory. $3.25 is a lot. They are still $2.25 in SF Bay Area. Thanks for sharing.
Another great review, I love it when you go China Town. When I lived in Hawaii we referred to them as manapua or char sui bao, steamed or baked. 👏
Love how they set up the outdoor seating by Nom Wah.
I have found a couple of places in Vegas that make some good pork buns.
First!
Roast pork bun, we call that manapua in Hawaii. Always delicious!!!
Steve: You need to shave. 😄 $3.25 for a long line waiting Pork Bun, you are right, even in NY, this is not cheap at all.
Looks like a wonderful snack, the bun was cooked perfectly.
Hop Shing had the best roast pork buns…
Thanks for taking us along. Looks like a nice outdoor area to eat. ♥️
I love roast pork bun! That looks heavenly. Thats one of my favorite 😊
I like to sit in Columbus Park.
That bao or manapua (as another fellow Hawaii person called it), was stuffed! Thanks for sharing all your favorite places to eat.
Wow, $3.25? When I was a kid, char siu bow in Oakland Chinatown was 15 cents, chicken bow a quarter. I can afford $3.25 nowadays but not sure I want to pay it!
Is Roast Pork Bun the same as Cha Shew Bow? I prefer the Baked Cha Shew Bow over the steamed ones.
I like Asian but I don't eat it every single day.
Nothing quite like a Big bun or roast pork bun with Chinatown coffee. Nothing compares to Hop Shing. Best baked roast pork buns ever and pre-Covid prices. $3.25 for a smaller baked bun. Wow. Too bad Hop Shing closed down. They were a classic old school place.
Try House of Joy
N.Y. probably has the best food on the planet
