$2.50 the biggest pork bun I’ve ever seen in my life from Chinatown
And it is sizzling hot and delicious! Much better than that overhyped one from Mei Lai Wah in my opinion (also no pork just fat inside). Twice the size of my palm.

Pretty sure you’ve committed a major violation of Reddit’s code of conduct by not including a banana for scale.

I believe the super market is called “Deluxe super market”.

Fuuuuck, I work around there and finish my lunch runs on Canal. Only bad things can happen.

Mei la wah changed for the worse a while back. Too sweet, too much fat. It was great growing up, but its changed alot.
Do they have a cabbage and egg or dill bun in the same size category?

And this isn’t the regular sized pork buns at about $1.25 each? Those are the size of a small fist. I go there often and have never seen a pork bun for 2.50. Just the oversized vegetarian pancake. We need to see a size scale.

If you can make it to Flushing, “NY Go Go Fast Food” next to the 7 train has delicious pork buns.

I have a soft spot for Mei Lei Wah since I’ve been going there since I was a kid. Definitely quality has suffered due to popularity but I think the hype is deserved
