Little Bao Causeway Bay: Modern Chinese Comfort with a Bold Twist

Little Bao

近維園, Shop H1, G/F, 9 Kingston Street 大門口面對, Gloucester Rd, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong

The Causeway Bay outlet feels like a modern Chinese diner with a playful twist—neon signage, cozy booths, and an open kitchen that immerses you in the action.

Today, it operates two locations:

  • Gloucester Road (near Causeway Bay) – A vibrant, spacious venue perfect for casual dining or date nights.
  • Shin Hing Street (Central) 

The Evolution

The Causeway Bay outlet feels like a modern Chinese diner with a playful twist—neon signage, cozy booths, and an open kitchen that immerses you in the action. It’s a space designed for sharing plates, sipping cocktails, and soaking in the buzz of Hong Kong’s dining scene.

What We Ordered & Loved

  • Signature Fried Chicken (Half Chicken)
    Crispy golden skin, tender juicy meat—even the chicken breast was flavorful. We chose the Szechuan pepper seasoning, which added a subtle kick and aromatic spice.

  • Pork Belly Bao
    The bao that made Little Bao famous: slow-braised pork belly, sesame mayo, hoisin ketchup, and shin leek salad, all tucked into a soft, fluffy steamed bun. A perfect balance of savory and sweet.

  • Kyoto G&T
    A refreshing cocktail with gin, Kyoho grape, and yuzu. Strong gin notes paired with fruity sweetness. Served with frozen grapes—though I wish they were actual Kyoho grapes for that extra burst.

Why It’s Worth It

Little Bao remains a pioneer of Hong Kong’s East-meets-West dining scene. From its humble Soho beginnings to its stylish modern locations, it has stayed true to its ethos of playfulness, sharing, and cultural fusion. Whether you’re at Gloucester Road or Shin Hing Street, expect bold flavors, inventive cocktails, and a dining experience that’s distinctly Hong Kong.

Panasonic steam oven NU-SC100WYPQ "Cutie" Product Review

I wanted to get weeks about it  I purchased this item from Tangs at SGD $399. They are having a promotion of discount SGD $50 if you spend SGD $500. So i top up with a vacuum tumbler and pyrex glass dish. After several months of using, here are my comments on this cutie steam oven. This is purely a steam oven with no microwave function. One of the rare oven with no microwave function.  I am ok with it as i steam fishes regularly and its a perfect addition of appliance. The other alternative is the miele steam oven and it is on offer at the same time for SGD $1600. The oven can be plugged to main power point as it is at 13 amp.  Summary: Here are some of my observations using the steam oven.  Buns Easy peasy for the early morning rush to work, put the char siew bao into the oven. Set it to 10 mins and you can steaming hot bun to eat for breakfast. Fish I steam fish majority of the time. It is super easy to use for steaming fish Vegetables Tr...

Kose Beauty Centre Facial Review (Isetan Scotts)

I was very very taken aback when i entered the unassuming beauty salon right in the heart of orchard. While the place is clean and design is simple, it was very sparsely furnished considering its brand name and in comparision with Yamano (the other japanese salon i went).  I entered the facial premises after i passed through the hair salon. What greeted me makes my jaw dropped even more, the room is bare. There is no wall partitions for privacy, in its place are curtains hung to separate the different beds. And i am able to see all the facial therapist and guests. Each therapist handles 2 guests both at the same time!!! From My session suppose to start at 3 pm since my therapist is also handling another customer, i whipped out my phone and start playing candy crush till my therapist is available at 3.30pm. The therapist started by cleaning my face and recommending the appropriate therapy for my skin. I was advised to do the  Whitening & Anti-ageing Treatment an...

Aqua Hair Korean Salon (Review) - C Perm Yay or Neh?

Its been a while since i blogged about something related to beauty. I've been rather constant with my hair stylist as i've become less adventurous with age. I did switch hair salons to seek a change in my looks but have failed miserably to look super stylo. Moroever, in so far no one has beaten the power hair massage of my current hair stylist.  I am getting quite bored with my constant similar look and i've been googling on korean hair salons for a while. One salon caught my eye in terms of their pricing and reviews (not much to begin with). This suits me as bloggers may skewed their reviews and other popular korean hair salons charge exorbitant rates. I made a last minute appointment on a weekday and was on my way to a new hair change. I was pretty surprised upon arrival as i was expecting it to be rather quiet. The stylist assigned to be is handling like 3 customers at the same time though each seemed to be in various stages of completion. Though my appointment is a...
