The original management seems to be back and I am so happy there is an authentic Filipino breakfast spot to come back to. My husband and I both really enjoyed our tocino silog with garlic rice and 2 perfect fried eggs. I really enjoyed the tomato and the spice vinegar along side it. The portions are great, and we left with to-go boxes. Really enjoyed the equator coffee as well. We will be back, and look forward to trying the homemade corned beef. Thank you East Bay Cafe Depot! So glad you are part of the Fremont Community.

I really enjoyed the pork adobo, it had melt in mouth texture and great flavorful and went really well with the garlic rice. The Hawaiian char siu chicken burrito was good too but I liked the pork adobo plate more. The service was wonderful and they really make you feel at home.

The owner was very kind and the food came out nice and hot. The plate consists of 2 chicken drum sticks, fried plantains, and a straight mountain of rice. The flavor of the chicken was great but it was slightly on the dryer side. The rice was fluffy and had a great fragrance to it. The plantains were absolutely delicious and probably the best part of the dish. My family and I really enjoyed the meal overall - I loved how it was local with unique flavors and had generous portions. I only wish it came with some kind of vegetables, the website lists stewed spinach but that was not an available option when ordering. Support your local businesses and try out something new!

The food smelled really nice when we got it. The rice reminded me of Spanish pilaf rice but with a slightly different flavor that I can't quite describe--definitely unique. The plantains were good and the chicken was tender. My cousin picked up the food for us and it seemed to be ready on time. For the portion size and price, I felt it was a good value overall.

I think one issue I had was the octopus being quite tough hard to chew, definitely over-cooked, flavors were on point though. The ice cream machine was broken, shit happens. I also thought the decor was lacking massively. I know this has nothing to do with food. For the Four Seasons, you don't think you'd see cheap plastic flowers, not sure whose idea this was. It doesn't seem like a standard that is usually allowed at these hotels anymore. Maybe go more for eco-friendly in the future.

You can catch them at several farmers markets and their food truck makes plenty of stops across the bay. Their website BunBao.com displays their vast schedule of locations, ordering system, and more. I was able to catch their food truck (van) and try two of their baos, the braised pork belly and bbq pork, along with an order of sesame balls. I really like the texture of their bao buns, they're perfectly bouncy without being too soft or mushy. The taste is light enough to create balance with the rush fillings. The texture of the braised pork belly was soft and chewy from the fatty pieces. Both this filling and the bbq pork filling has a nice combination of sweet and salty. The sesame balls on the other hand had a very dry red bean filling. The paste felt very dehydrated but the outer dough was chewy and fried nicely.

I found Bunbao at the Vallejo Farmer's Market. They sell frozen baos at the markets…read more The vendor was very helpful describing each bao and his recommendations. The first time we got the bbq pork, XLB, and the custard/red bean buns. He gave us a 10% discount for buying three items at once. He had multiple recommendations for how to reheat but steaming is the best way. We really enjoyed those three items. So much so that we went back the next weekend to try more baos! We tried three other savory buns like the braised and the minced meat baos. The third time we also tried the sesame balls filled with red bean. They're about the size of golf balls. There are some items that were a great hit and others missed the mark for us. The ones we liked the most were the bbq pork, XLB, custard buns, minced meat bun. But that's personal preference. Everything tasted like it was fresh-frozen. Of course it's frozen. But it didn't taste "old". Since I heated them up at home I didn't encounter problems with the food being cold. Bunbao was a fun discovery. It satisfies the craving for baos and it's great they're frozen so you can stock up and enjoy whenever.
