BOD (Bao On Demand)
Sometimes snaking past several shoplots, the long queues outside this tiny kiosk stirred our curiosity: "Why is the takeaway dim sum at BOD, an acronym for 'bao on demand,' selling like hotcakes?"
For one, it's familiar fare: think dumplings, glutinous rice wrapped in lotus leaves, and steamed baos such as the signature Kong Fu Meat Bun stuffed with pork, hard-boiled egg, cabbage and rice wine.
Secondly, it's seriously good stuff.
It's time to embrace salted egg yolk as more than a trend, seeing how long it's survived. BOD's salted egg yolk baos check the box for producing orgasmic implosions, but it was their loh mai kai generously studded with chicken, egg, mushroom, preserved vegetables and char siew that made us made us glad for the Johor Bahru export.
