Spacious and clean indoor. They are famous for Steamed bun with multiple choice of meat: pork, chicken, or vegetable. Other dishes also worth trying.

I absolutely love the banh baos (steamed buns) here! I've been eating their banh baos ever since I was little and when they were located in the food court.

This is the only banh bao (translated as "wrapping cake") shop I know.
