IUI Coffee Shop

This is a mui choy bao (preserved vegetable steamed bun). Although it does not look that good but it is tasty enough.

Looks quite firm - about MYR1.50 I think but I may be wrong

  6. Haven't had vegetable pao for years! Here, mostly the type with thin strips of cabbage and carrots, not the traditional ones I grew up eating so I don't bother buying anymore, plus it is not cheap either...even though it is all vegetables :(

  7. You are right, the pau skin looks firm.. I don't like shiny skin, I like fluffy and bread-like skin..

  9. Haven't come across mui choy paus before. What's makanan "sinki"? Luckily, there isn't a 'T' in the word! :D

  10. That pao skin looks like the pao that I made previously, so shiny and firm. This is not a compliment. Like Princess Ribbon, I prefer soft and fluffy pao >.<

  13. I have always been trying to find out about this Mui Choy Bao as I first ate them in China, thinking it was their speciality until my wife ticked me off. She has been showing me our local Mui Choy Bao here since then and I like that for a change instead of meat. Those sold in China were often wet with soupy dripping and sometimes sour if unlucky!
    Oh yes, it is popular in China because meat is expensive and scarce in many places.

  14. I like mui choy bao. So far the most loveable one is at Tanjung Sepat. I also have tried one called Langkap Bao at Ipoh. Their handmade pao is superb.
