Tiny place but friendly - Edit
Friendly place but only room for about 10 people at once! V convenient for the main train station (Birmingham New Street).
Read moreI had a quick bite between trains - one bao bun with tofu, and a side of aubergine. Both v tasty but a bit small, even for lunch! It was £9 for these two things. I think I should have got a larger side (they had oyster mushrooms with Pak choi on offer), or got two bao buns.
Pros: Friendly
Cons: Portions quite small , Only 1 vegan bao option (tofu) but various sauces

Amazing Bao buns! - Edit
The salt and pepper tofu Bao buns are incredible! Two vegan options and one veggie. I had the oyster mushrooms with 'that' cured egg yolk and crispy shallots. Just one of the tastiest things I've ever eaten!

Really nice food - Edit
The bao was fantastic! The bun was so soft and delicious. May seem pricey but they’re really filling. Can’t wait to come back and try the rice bowl

Favourite spot in Birmingham - Edit
Has a small considered menu with vegan salt and pepper tofu bao buns, salt and pepper tofu rice bowl with aubergines and pickles and fish fragrant aubergine as a vegan side. The buns are traditionally steamed in a wicker steamer and the bowls are so amazingly tasty we just keep going back again and again! The place it’s self is small and intimate with a really nice relaxed vibe. The prices are also really good
Read morePros: Amazing tasty food , Vegan options , Good prices
Cons: Small place so if it’s full you will have to wait
