Came here on the recommendation of the gorgeous Isabelle Bach and got the custard bun and “chicken tail bun” aka cocktail bun. Oh, they did not disappoint. You could smell the freshly baked buns before you see the shop and the lovely soft and fluffy buns are testament to the deliciousness of their baked buns. Generous fillings and not too sweet, and custard bun had a yummy crackly top. I would go back again and again for them. Just not for the egg tart though. Didn’t like it at all - not eggy nor custardy smooth, and quite expensive at $2 a piece.
My favourite Asian bakery place in town! Been there every time when I'm in the area. Consistent great flavours. Love custard polo bun so much! Have to try it hot.
Seriously peeps, who doesn't love this place! Yummy bunny bursts of delicious savoury or sweet buns! I have been buying these baked goods for years now and the secret is? consistency! And that's why they last and last and hopefully will be in my foodie hit list for years to come! My favourite, would have to be the spring onion! Mmmm, want one now!
The custard polo bun is my favorite. I didn't expect to get such authentic polo buns here in Adelaide. It would be amazing if I can have some authentic Hong Kong milk tea to drink with the buns.
I went shopping in the markets the other week and happened to walk past this shop, I decided to buy a chicken bun and a sweet red bean bun. The staff were very friendly and even offered to warm them up for me. The buns were absolutely lovely, they tasted fresh, the buns were soft, honestly a fantastic place to stop for a snack! Will definitely be going back. :)
A classic example of "don't judge a book by its cover". From a quick glance, you wouldn't expect anything good come from this small simple shop in adelaide central.
BUT!
try the cheesy pocket, custard polo, and bbq pork and you will be amazed. The bread was just soft. Ask the lady to microwave it for you before you enjoy your bun.
I kid you not! it will blow your mind.
The absolute best Chinese bun bakery ever! I crave their bread buns every now and again. My favourite is the cheesy pocket which will always run out towards the second half of the day! They can heat up the bread for you to eat straight away and the cheese just oozes out. Bread is a nice soft and spongy texture. Walking towards the bakery you can smell the wonderful aroma of their breads. I've been eating their buns since childhood and their buns have always been consistently good!
Nanna's hot bake has a variety of sweet and savory buns to choose from. My fav would be the pork buns. They were tasty and succulent. The kaya bun however was not as fragrant as expected.
4.9!! What?! We just had to visit this place to see what the hype was about. We were dubious when we saw it was just one cake fridge with rows of buns that seemingly all looked the same. However. As I walked away and bit into my Chicken hot pot bun (ask for it to be warmed in the microwave) I got it. The bun was fesh, the filling delicious. I followed it up with a coconut scroll which was also delish. I'll be sure to pop by Nanna's again.
A great place to finish off a meal in Chinatown. Always busy and fresh. Staff are very polite and work fast. Heated Kaya bun would be my recommendation.
Been coming here since I was a child. With a variety of sweet and savoury options you’ll never be disappointed.
My top 3 choices would have to be the hot dog, custard polo, and curry puff.
100% worth it and highly recommend.

📝: BEST ASIAN BREADS EVER 😍. Thanks @hello.imnikki for recommending me this! Hidden gem in Chinatown, near Central Market. A must visit if you’re in Adelaide.
❤️: Seriously everything we got was so good. A place definitely worth multiple visits. The pastry of the Curry Puff was so flakey and buttery, the filling was so tasty. The combination was like heaven in the mouth. The breads were perfect, both sweet and savory. Price was very cheap and affordable as well. Super impressed!
Highly recommend Taro bun, red bean bun, coconut bun and pork floss bun! They are my favorite buns in Adelaide!! Please don’t buy too many buns as they always are sold out quickly lol
The best taro buns 😍 generous and real fillings as you get actual taro in the buns. Polo buns are amazing too. Knew they were Malaysian as tasted like what we get back home 😍
Bought a chicken curry puff and a nanna hotdog bun and they were amazing and I was so shocked how delicious they were. The pastry for the curry puff was a bomb and I felt like I was in heaven eating them in the morning. Definitely recommend this place to everyone.

These guys are an Adelaide icon and have been here for yearssss. Defs worth a try if visiting Chinatown. Their pastries are always so yummy and very reasonable, probably one of the cheapest lunches you can get in the city area. Never change Nannas ❤️
The Egg tarts are very yummy especially when fresh so to is the deluxe hotdog, nestled in little market area reminiscent of Little Saigon in Melbourne skip the breadtop and try some homemade baked goodness
