Lee & Bai Chinese Buns Shop

Tried this place for the first time for lunch with coworkers the other day, and it was absolutely delicious. We got an order of the green pepper & braised pork buns and an order of the sprouts & braised pork buns, and my coworkers also got the spicy beef noodles and one of the porridge options. We ordered over the phone for pickup and the food was ready and waiting for us by the time we drove over, less than 15 minutes. The buns were soft and warm with a good amount of filling, which was flavorful and juicy. Will definitely order from this place again to try the other buns and their noodles.

One of the best bao buns I have ever had - my favorite was their Chengdu classic - buns were packed with fillings. Second favorite was the vegetarian one! I loved their soy milk drinks especially their cold one. The service was great - staff were so kind. You can see them making fresh buns while u eat. For $7 this was such a steal!!

Absolutely loved this place! 🥟 The buns here are amazing — juicy, flavorful, and super affordable. Each basket comes with six buns, basically $1 each, which is unbelievable for NYC! The spicy beef bun was my favorite, full of rich flavor and heat. The soy milk drinks were also refreshing, especially the Tieguanyin one. The shop is clean, bright, and cozy — perfect for a quick, tasty meal in Flushing. Highly recommend!

I love the bao here!! I like the pork one and the pepper one is amazingly yum too! The bean noodle and soybean are just so tasty 😋

I didn’t enjoy my spicy beef noodle. The beef chunks were dry and tough. I’m also not a fan of rice noodles and that’s what was used in the dish. The broth was mala spicy but that’s all I tasted. I really didn’t get any other hints of flavors other than mala. The Chengdu buns were more enjoyable. The filling differed from the usual pork fillings you find in other shops and the assortment of flavors would entice me to come back to try other buns. They were still just above average and nothing to write home about. I enjoyed their yogurt drink the most. The atmosphere was inviting and clean but the TV was on blast which took away from the dining experience. Service was perfunctory.
