A Chinatown Tradition

Wednesday, 28 Jun 2006 | Culture, Food, Travel

It has become a tradition of mine to have a Cha Siu Baau, a Chinese Steamed Pork Bun, whenever I visit Chinatown in San Francisco. I love the taste of the barbecued pork inside the steamed bun. It's a great snack to give me a little energy while shopping and sightseeing in Chinatown.

I bought this one at a dim sum place on Stockton Street, just a few doors down from the Wells Fargo Bank. I was amazed when the woman told me it was only $1.10 for two of these little Chinese treats.
