Where To Meet Up With Someone For Exactly 1 Hour So You Can Go Home & Be Alone Again

"You like this person. Not enough that you want to spend hours with them, but enough that you want them to think you’re cool by taking them to this casual and adorable café in King’s Cross. Unlike Bao’s other spots, this place is less about confit pork-packed sit-down meals and more about picking up some delicious sweet stuff wrapped up in equally delicious steamed dough. Think cute peach-shaped red bean white chocolate bao, molten seasonal specials, and our personal favourite, the salted egg custard sad face bao. Pick up a box of those, a couple of their steamed dough sausage rolls, and head to the canal for a light snack and speedy catch-up." - rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley
