32. 包子 (bāo zi)
I've mentioned 包子 (bāo zi) a few times recenty in different topics, but never really thought much about what is available here in Guangxi. I tend to stick to the same two or three choices. But there are many more.
So, I checked out a very popular local place (the one all the taxidrivers use) and translated their on-the-wall menu. Many of the items are duplicated, appearing on both the top banner and down the right hand side. I've only included each one once.
I can't pretend to know what they all really are. Quicksand Bun, anyone?
