Our Craft
Teochew Handmade Pau’s journey began during the 1990s when Mr Yeoh was mastering his skills in the kitchen, with the feel of his hands as the only scale that guided him. Throughout the process of making each delicate steamed bun, his instincts prompted him on the desired measure of ingredients required to concoct these flavourful delights.
An essential component in crafting steamed buns is achieving balance between the skin of the bun and the filling that it envelops. The soft skin of our steamed buns seals in the flavours of our generous fillings and is rolled out thinly to guarantee bursts of relish on your taste buds with the very first bite!
Our Signatures
Set in the heartland of Toa Payoh, our stall dishes out baskets of steaming hot goodies by sunrise to indulge the morning breakfast crowd—with our signature kong bak pau (braised pork bun) and longevity bun often selling out by twelve noon. Our version of kong bak pau replaces the usual fatty pork belly with a healthier option of lean meat without compromising on its tenderness, ensuring a guilt-free treat for all! Coated in a beautiful pink finish, our longevity buns are favoured by our customers because of its reduced sweetness and are often purchased for various Chinese festive and religious occasions.
We also have a variety of classic dim sum favourites like siew mai (traditionally shrimp and pork dumping which we have replaced with fish meat), fan choy (steamed rice with charcoal BBQ pork slices) and lo mai gai (steamed glutinous rice with pork slices) that definitely warrants a try.
