Juicy bao

-

If you see a long line of hungry diners waiting for a bite of their juicy buns.

 


Menu





When we go to restaurants to dine out, there definitely is a sense of trust if it has an open kitchen. It's very inclusive and inviting. They have a dumpling section right by the front window of the restaurant where passers-by can get a clear view of Dumpling Masters filling in dumplings.

Everything on the menu here at Juicy Bao Bao is very affordable and you don't have to wait long for your order to arrive even during peak hours. So despite having to wait in the line to get inside, the turn over here is very quick.




Shang-hai stir fried noodles


This was your average Shanghai stir-fried noodles with shredded meat and vegetables for $12.8. The noodles were a tad overcooked for my personal preference (I like a little texture in noddles). So I would most likely order something else next time I visit the restaurant.



Juicy soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao)

It just seemed like a must-order dish at Juicy Bao Bao, given that they are the same owners of Authentic Bites Dumpling House on Newcastle Street in Northbridge, or in any dumplings house for that matter.

They were juicy and the broth inside was delicious but the ones from Din Tai Fung in Taiwan still are the best out of all the Shanghai dumplings I've tried so far.





Pan fried pork juicy baos

Crispy and plump

I am seriously addicted to pan-fried dumplings. We've tried the ones at Yang's Dumplings inside the Waterford Plaza in Bentley and loooved them. The fact that its dumpling dough is so thick and chewy, soft on the top but crispy on the bottom and juicy and hot broth inside it have made me fall in love with these babies. For under 10 bucks for 6 pieces, filled with well-seasoned pork content, they definitely are the must-get at Juicy Bao Bao.

Opening hours are 11.30 to 3pm and 5.30 to 9pm daily and Closed on Wednesdays.

Lola's GC

Winner winner chicken dinner!  I am rejoicing for the newly opened joint- the Lola’s grilled chicken from the same legends that brought us the royAl’s chicken and burger. They are anything but an ordinary grilled chicken. Capturing the essence of their Filipino background (the Craigie Brothers and Mama Estrella’s collaboration and tribute to “Lola”, meaning grandmother in Tagalog), they serve chicken as Classic Grilled Inasal (to be grilled/barbequed, popular staple at every Filipino BBQ or festivals), Chipotle in Adobo (for spicy lovers) or Lola’s special (incorporating Banana Ketchup as the main ingredient). Their menu is simple yet mouthwatering- think Garlic fried rice (AMAZING), adobo chili mayo and royAl’s cheese burger spring rolls! The décor comprises of a giant painting on the wall which reminds of Philippines with its bright and bold summer colours- immediately immersing customers with a happy atmosphere. The smell of the grill takes us right to streets of Phili...

Thaitation

Thailand cuisine is a favourite cuisine for many including myself. Thaitation hasn’t been around for long but it has certainly made itself known in the Floreat Forum block. It’s a small restaurant with an inviting alfresco dining area. And you can expect full bookings on busy Friday and weekend nights. Upon entering, you instantly hear the chefs in the kitchen speaking in Thai, knockings of woks in the background and you are hit with smell of fish sauce and coconut milk. You see tanks of fish oil and coconut milk stacked up on the kitchen bench. They offer authentic yet modern flavours. If you were having difficulty finding a reasonably priced Thai restaurant, Thaitation has hit the spot in terms of pricing and flavours! They offer seasonal menus (Think seafood in coconut broth served in a whole coconut), as well as crowd favourites including pad Thai, tom yum and chilli crispy chicken.

Soul food

Foodies will probably agree- the most frequently asked question we get is: " Can you recommend me a good food place/restaurant? " It's definitely a part of the job (or a serious hobby in my case) requirement to answer this question. Most of the time I'm reluctant to tell people anywhere in particular because: 1) everyone's taste buds are different, 2) there are so many restaurants, it is hard to pick just one or two! 3) I don't want to tell anyone about my secret place sometimes hahah. But today, I wanted to share some of my favourite places to eat out in Perth. Again, I want to emphasise that I wasn't sponsored in any way to eat at these places and that it is my personal taste. I recommend everyone to try food for themselves and make judgements for themselves. My soul food is pizza as all of my close friends and family are very much aware of this. Some of the best pizzas I have tried in Perth are  Canteen Pizza in Cottesloe, L'a...
