Bao is one of those immensely versatile dishes — the kind that always seems to taste great no matter the filling. Whether you like yours stuffed with pork belly or karaage chicken, or prefer mushrooms with truffle kewpie mayonnaise and truffle salsa, chicken katsu with sando sauce, or beef ribs and avocado, your tastebuds won't be disappointed.
Clearly, Bao Bar specialises in the beloved bite. In fact, it serves up all of the above varieties, as well as tofu and prawn types, too. And, from midday on Sunday, September 13, it's dishing them up for $3 a pop to celebrate the store's launch — as part of an afternoon-long festival.
Yes, that'd be the $3 Bao Festival, which will run until 10pm. No bookings are required, but the South Brisbane spot does have a 30-person seating capacity at present, so you might need to wait — or you can grab some cheap bao to takeaway.
