Formosa bao

An authentic Taiwanese bao shop has opened as one of the new restaurants on Long Beach Peninsula! Husband-and-wife duo Richard and Rhoda proudly run in the heart of Long Beach, and you can taste the dedication of craft in every bite. Their perfectly steamed baos burst with BBQ pork, beef, spicy chicken, or sweet red bean. The buns are massive, and they don’t skimp on the filling. Each bite is full of flavor and sings with a dunk in the house chili sauce. Try their meat skewers, where beef, pork, or shrimp are swathed in spices and grilled to perfection. Be sure to add a delicately marinated tea egg to any dish. A bite of the egg paired with their green onion bread is heavenly. These dreamy Taiwanese pillows are made fresh daily and tend to sell out. Be sure to stock up early
