Siopao is what we Filipino calls a pork (or chicken) steamed buns. My mom
called so early in the morning asking if we want it. They'll drive all the way
to Joyce Street (East Side of Vancouver) from Richmond and bring us a box of
siopao (we live West Side of Vancouver). Parents are the best!
I have been craving it for months now and I can't believe it's here! Bao
Bakery have delicious, freshly made steamed buns.
Siopao, literally meaning "hot bun", is the Philippine cuisine indigenized version of the Cantonese steamed bun called cha siu bao. - Wikipedia
When I was younger, I love and would only eat asado siopao, but now I only eat bola-bola and find the asado too sweet. I am growing old!
