Now they have

It was a beautiful Sunday morning. Last Sunday of February 2022. Hubby and I woke up around 7am, what a nice day to sleep in. 


Anyway, we spotted that my MIL has also woke up, so we invited her for breakfast in the city centre. Same time, we shown her the new Borneo Cultures Museum (the largest museum in Malaysia) which is opening to public soon.  

Kim Joo cafe. Who doesn't know the well known Kim Joo's mixed pork noodle?


So the 3 of us drove all the way there and since it was early, we had no problem finding parking behind the General Post Office. The designated parking bay behind the Hainan Association building.  My MIL reminiscing on the old days as we walked along the old Chinese buildings to the coffee shop. 

Our breakfast arrived in no time as few tables were occupied that time. Each of us had its mixed pork soup and vinegar noodle set. How I missed its taste!!!


The younger girl that helped out in the shop was telling us of its baos. Yes, now they have handmade baos. Bak baos and char siew baos. 


We bought 3 bak baos and 2 char siew baos home to try. Jay, after finished his noodle, took one of the bak baos. So here was how the meat filling in the bak bao. He finished his bao by himself!!! 

Hubby and I shared one of the char siew baos. There was egg in the char siew bao, which I always like. You could see the char siew chunks in the bun. 
 

Taste-wise, both baos were nice. The bun was soft and there was quite a filling in it too. You could give their baos a try whenever you drop by Kim Joo for its noodle.

I prefer the bao than the noodle. Such fluffy bao, so yummy! Good Bonding time spend with mother in law.

Those buns or baos are really tempting! Wish I could reach in and grab one to try!

Wowwwww!!! Behind the post office? That is quite a distance to walk all the way to Kim Joo! I hope somebody will bring the paos over and sell here. I sure would want to try - all that they cook and serve at Kim Joo have always been good!

We had bak pao and big pao 2 days ago. I usually buy bak for hubby and char siew pao for myself.

I really miss eating bao! I am thinking of ordering dim sum this weekend.

Your Bak Bao and Char Siew Baos are all my favourites. I must go and buy some to eat tomorrow.
