Bao Baotszy

«Bao Baotszy» is a Chinese bistro on Bolshoy Prospekt on Vasilyevsky Island. Here they make steamed baozi buns, served in portions starting from 5 pieces. The fillings are unexpected: daikon with beef fat, beef in various combinations. This dish is the foundation of the menu and the main reason to stop by. The cuisine here is Chinese, but there's also coffee to go — handy if you're rushing around on business on Vasilyevsky Island. The average check per person is about 700 rubles, which makes «Bao Baotszy» a good option for an inexpensive snack or lunch without overspending. The interior is well thought out: a vaulted ceiling gives the space volume, the walls are decorated with painted murals, and rattan furniture along with Chinese vases nod to the cuisine's origins. The neutral tones in the decor don't distract from the main thing — plates of hot baozi.
