When you need a quick bite on a budget, baos are hard to beat. When they’re only $1, it’s hard to say no. That’s what Wonderbao will be serving when it celebrates its seventh birthday – and 10,000 followers on Instagram – on July 20.

It’ll be dropping the price of four traditional bao varieties – char siu (barbeque pork), choi (shiitake mushroom, tofu and vegies), nai wong (egg custard) and taro – to just $1. (All other menu items will be available the regular retail price.) Customers can order as many $1 baos as they like, as long as they visit between 11am and 4pm.

  tiny shop, slow service at the best of times… good luck waiting in line with 100 others for (admittedly delicious) gua bao

    In line now and probably at the worst time since it’s peak lunch time. Line is loooooong.

    50 minute wait in total.

    Do you know if the EatClub deal is limited to 1 bao/person?

    Is it just 1 $1 bao or unlimited?

    I booked through EatClub and went to this shop only to find them closed. Was a lot of hassle messing around with parking etc.

    I certainly wouldn't bother with this.

  Either the title is wrong or the Wonderbao website is wrong. Their menu lists these at $2.20 each (not $2.70): http://www.wonderbaokitchen.com.au/#menu

    The menu available on EatClub list the prices for these basic bao as $2.70 each.

  Was staying in the QV apartments in Melbourne CBD, visiting from QLD. Was looking for somewhere nearby that was selling braised pork belly bao. Google sent me to Wonderbao. Took a while to find the place cause of the enormous Metro building works, but when I eventually found my way around to the RMIT bball courts and then found the shop, I was in pork belly heaven. Shame the pork belly bao arent $1 in this deal, but I am back in QLD, so I cant get that porky goodness anyways. Eat a few of these for me Ozbargainers.

  Wow $2.70 for a bao? We pay $6-8 for admittedly delicious ones on the Gold Coast. At the full price I'd be all over these, at $1 you'd have to roll me out of there.

    The bao that are part of these deal are the pinched, char siu bao-type bao, not the taco-shaped gua bao.

    Where do you get them on the Gold Coast?

      Lucky Bao or Burger Bao.
