If our sweet red bean bao buns look like little piglets, we’re snapping a pic. If a robot shaped like a cat delivers our food, we’re Insta-bragging about that. If a massive Iron Man statue overlooks the whole thing, we’ll be back.
Okay, so we mixed up Iron Man and the Terminator. But we certainly won’t mix up The C Bao and Dumpling with any other restaurant in the area. This Tonawanda destination offers both authentic Chinese dishes AND familiar American-Chinese comfort food.
The scallion pancakes need no introduction, nor do they require any syrup. The swan-shaped durian pastries outdo any swan-shaped napkins. The coconut custard bun is a trip to the beach, regardless of the season. Are you hungry yet?
If you’re feelin’ spicy, the dan-dan noodles and beef noodle soups can be customized to maximum spiciness. (They also offer them mild, for those of us who find sparkling water spicy.)
The unique goodies on The C Bao and Dumpling menu? Legendary. Crispy sesame-coated balls with a sweet red bean filling? YUM. Jelly-like milk breaded and fried, served with a side of condensed milk? Heaven. Have you ever experienced such a thing?!
Well, you have more delicious options to choose from: pan-fried pies, like the New Orleans chicken pie. The fresh, made-to-order rice rolls, crafted in-house from rice flour, are impeccable, too. Regardless of whether you do seafood or meat or just douse it in a house-made sauce, you’ll be writing The C Bao and Dumpling thank-you notes for life…
