"Daddy Bao is the paternal presence we all need in our lives. This place will serve you some of the best bao in the whole of London and a plum wine negroni to boot. The little, low-key Taiwanese spot near Tooting Broadway station works for mates, dates, and just to satisfy that general urge we all sometimes get to eat a load of their winning mushroom bao solo. Once you try this smoky-meets-fluffy shiitake situation, you’ll know exactly what we’re talking about." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, daisy meager, sinead cranna
