Seven years is a long time in restaurant years, especially when you're a tiny bun shop tucked behind a university building. To celebrate the massive milestone of hitting seven years old, Wonderbao will be holding seven days of specials from the 17th to 24th of August.
As part of the specials, expect Wonderbao's house-made soy milk to be churned into gelato by Gelato Messina and stuffed into a fried bao bun with boba; a bao birthday cake reminiscent of Chinese fruit cakes with strawberries, cream and meringue (minus the delightful durian); scratchy prizes that include $5 and $10 vouchers; a make-your-own bao day where you choose your own protein, topping and sauce for the usual price of $5.40; an all-day happy hour where $10 buys you a gua bao, fries and drink; a day of Korean fried chicken; and a limited release of some sweet, sweet merch (25 each of jumpers, T-shirts and totes) made in Wonderbao's signature dark grey and pink.
In a time where cheap eats don't seem to be getting any cheaper, Wonderbao hits us with a week of specials proving there ain't no party like a gua bao party.
