💭I liked some of the bao, others I thought needed more flavour or more bite / crunch. I always use @eatchayclub as the comparison for good bao. Sad for those who never got to try their food! Surprisingly, the veg plates stole the show! They were fantastic, I had a few faves but I will say the corn is one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. With a bit of work, maybe a mix of veg & more meaty vegan buns using @omnifoods.uk pork or @heurafoods chicken, this vegan menu could be amazing (grace). Also, loved the dessert!
