"Pao" paradise
Since 'pao' is the hot topic here. I've decided to post about types of bao available in the market. XP
A baozi or simply known as bao, bau, nunu, pow a type of steamed, filled bun or bread-like item in various chinese cuisines, as there is much variation as to the fillings and the preparations. In its bun-like aspect it is very similar to the traditional Chinese mantou. It can be filled with meat and/or vegetarian fillings, and is usually seasoned with nutmeg. It can be eaten at any meal in Chinese culture, and is often eaten for breakfast.

Type :
1. Cha siu baau, charsiu bau
- filled with barbeque flavour char siu pork
2. Goubuli baozi
- a meat-filled baozi variety from Tianjin; its name literally means, "Baozi that dogs ignore"
3. xiaolongbao
- a small, meat-filled baozi from Shanghai containing a juicy broth. Because it is succulent and prepared with leavened dough, it is sometimes considered different from other bao types, and more closely resembles a jiaozi (dumpling)
4. Shengjian mantou
- a small, meat-filled, fried baozi from Shanghai
5. Tang bao
- a large, soup-filled baozi from Yangzhou and drank with a straw
6. Doushabao
