Discover the top 5 best halal Pau in Singapore

Pau or Pao or Bao or steamed bun, is a soft, fluffy bread originating from Chinese cuisine and widely enjoyed in Southeast Asia.

Made from a simple dough of flour, yeast, sugar, and water, the buns are steamed to achieve their signature pillowy texture. Pau comes in both sweet and savoury varieties, with fillings such as barbecued char siu chicken, minced meat, curry, or vegetables. Sweet versions may feature red bean paste, lotus seed paste, or custard. Often enjoyed as a snack, breakfast, or part of dim sum, pau is loved for its comforting texture and delicious, versatile fillings.
