Mean Bao - Union Station

The store's name and aesthetics piqued my interest, so I gave it a try. I ordered 2 pork baos, which were delicious. There were no overpowering flavors and they were just the right temperature - neither piping hot, nor cold or lukewarm. The staff was friendly and efficient. All customers seemed to get their orders super fast. I also liked that the employee at cash specifically asked if I wanted my food spicy or not, without me having to bring it up. Overall great experience, would recommend!

Got the 2 baos (jerk chicken and 3 cup chicken) and added siu mai. The baos were soft and pillowy, though would have wanted more of the tasty chicken. The siu mai was packed and heavy, though would have wanted a bit more flavour. Prices are fair. Cooked on the spot so you tradeoff the quickness for the freshness. Location is super convenient at union station.

Stopped by Mean Bao at Union Station before heading to Electric Island. Service was a little slow, and they call out your number when the food is ready—but the guy calling was so quiet so make sure you stay close or listen carefully. We ordered siu mai, shrimp dumplings (not har gow style—more like shrimp in a wonton wrap ), and the spicy wontons. The siu mai and spicy wontons were definitely my favorites—so delicious! We got lucky and snagged a side table to eat, which was perfect. Oh and they do charge you for extra sauces and didn’t filled to the top Didn’t try the bao this time since I didn’t want to get too full before the festival, but definitely coming back for that next time!
