Mmmm.... sooooo hungryyyyyy

 

I've never seen anyone peel off anything but the paper. Seems like a waste, because the outer skin tastes a little sweeter than the fluffy bread under it. I prefer the baked baos, but the steamed ones are easier to find.

I've had baos with only vegetables a couple times, but 99%+ of the time they have meat, usually pork. Does an egg yolk count as "meat"?

Vietnamese baos are good too, but I find stranger stuff in them, like tiger lillies or tripe.

Anything with red or black bean paste is a delight my cajun wife doesn't understand.

Damn I'm hungry and homesick for a Chinatown ("homesick for a Chinatown"?? That's totally ABC).

 

its coz when the buns are being cooked some people poke them. so the outer skin is kinda "dirty" and you wouldnt wanna eat it.

 

 

The yellow-trailer park trash descent, not that there's anything wrong with that, tend to pull off the outer skin. It comes from lack of sanitary conditions.

 

i didn't think there was a such thing as "yellow trailer-park trash." even the poorest of asians never live in trailers.

 

By the way, you LA guys have a great dim sum restaurant on Rosemead Blvd/Valley Blvd in Rosemead. It has the big chickens in front of it. I'm writing about it because it has the best dim sum I have ever had. This is saying something because the restaurants in LA/San Gabriel Valley are all quite good. Just be prepared to wait 1+ hour on a busy morning. Mmm, mouth drooling even thinking about it.
