...I mean "steamed" buns.

Let's talk about these delicious treats. We call them Siopao, and they're basically steamed buns with meat filling (pork, rabbit) and an egg in the middle.

Mmm, like little dumplings! I'd try them!

Also, I've never had rabbit, but I would try it if I had the option!

Rabbit? Closest I've ever had to that is elk, and God was it good.

These dumplings are making me hungry. xD Time for poutine!

I bought some of those from the international market once! I didn't know what they were (they were in the frozen food section and the packaging was all in Asian of some sort), but they were good!

Apparently if you buy them whole they have to keep the heads on so you can tell they aren't cats......


Yeah...lopping off a rabbit head was kind of disgusting :cry:




Buns look delicious but I've never had them before....probably would be good with ground beef and cheese.

If I had to say one good thing about Guiyang, it's steamed buns.

I like the milk custard ones. Though sometimes, when you've really craving it, the BBQ Pork Bun is the best food in the world.

Anyone ever tried the Shanghainese 'xiaolongbao'
