Bao Wow

Bao Wow Original Gua Bao

Being a foodie and all, I got to admit I’m a bit slow with following this town’s food trends.  I didn’t join the Butao craze until last month, I don’t drool when I see a macaron, and I’m not “bao” obsessed yet [I hope you’re not starting to think I’m a hack].  So don’t be surprised when I tell you that yesterday was the first time I stepped into “bao” land ~ lunching at Bao Wow in Wanchai.
