Bao Soho
Best for: stylish steamed buns
Dish to order: fried chicken bao
So small in size that waiting for a table is an inevitable feature of dining here, Bao Soho offers a speedy, hipster eating experience, and there are almost always queues outside on Lexington Street. A food stall turned bricks-and-mortar restaurant; the secret of Bao’s success is that it delivers on quality as well as style. The menu is short and assured, offering not only the plump, trademark Taiwanese buns packed with fried chicken and lamb shoulder, but also small dishes such as trotter fritters. Round off with Horlicks ice cream in a fried bao – contemporary comfort food.
