We came by to Belly Bao for a quick eat before heading home after a night out in Newtown. We ordered the vegan cheese toastie and eggplant baoger. The toastie for $8 was a little bit tiny, but my goodness was it absolutely delicious! There was garlic, a hint of chilli, and a whole lot of oozy vegan cheese. The baoger was such an interesting item on the menu. The burger was was made with the same material as bao is made. The buns were so so soft and delicious. The filling features crispy eggplant, and pickled cucumber with lettuce. This was so incredibly delicious, and made even better with a couple of drops of the sriracha.
I loved the ambiance on the inside - the restaurant is super intimate and warm, and I loved the wooden decor throughout. Service is really friendly and speed too. My only downside is the small serving portions.
