Bobibao brings genuine Taiwanese night market energy to Bowden with fluffy bao buns, street-style bites, and cold drinks. Taiwan expats note the pork belly bao hits close to home—stuffed with tender braised pork, crushed peanuts, and fresh cilantro. Share plates fill the tables quickly: think crisp Taiwanese fried chicken with fresh basil, garlicky long beans, and savoury XO fried rice. Diners regularly pair the spread with a local South Australian wine, Taiwanese honey beer, or a house-made brown sugar bubble tea. Large groups tackle the multi-course Feed Me feast, while casual tables wind down over prawn toast and sweet taro.
- Traditional Pork Belly Baos: Steamed, pillowy buns loaded with braised pork belly, crushed peanuts, and fresh coriander deliver authentic Taiwanese street-food flavour.
- Generous 'Feed Me' Banquets: A generous multi-course banquet curated by the kitchen, spanning crispy chicken, dumplings, and fried rice for tables to share.
- Brews, Bubble Tea & Local Wine: Modern street snacks paired with Taiwanese honey beer, bubble teas, and local South Australian wines.

Authentic Modern Taiwanese Flavors
Diners consistently praise signature items like the braised pork belly baos, crispy Taiwanese popcorn chicken with fresh basil, and savory fried rice.
The popcorn chicken is next level — proper crispy coating, fresh basil through it and a sweet chilli dipping sauce that just works
K Y Abundant & Generous Portions
Generous portions define the menu, ensuring diners leave pleasantly full whether ordering à la carte or chef selections.

Groups and work colleagues find Bobibao an effortless setting to share a wide array of savory small plates and banquet-style dishes.
I had dinner at Bobibao tonight with my work colleagues, and we all had an amazing experience. Everyone really enjoyed the Taiwanese dishes.
CHINH-YUAN HUANG (Jeff HUANG) Stress-Free 'Feed Me' Banquets
The multi-course Feed Me tasting menu takes the guesswork out of ordering for small groups and couples, delivering generous chef selections.
Had the feed me menu with 6 people and couldn’t fault it. Service was beautiful, would recommend it to a small group for a nice night out.
Bella fleet Specialty Bubble Teas & Taiwanese Beers
Specialty Taiwanese refreshments, from smooth brown sugar bubble tea to unique honey beer, provide a distinctive beverage experience.
Brown sugar bubble tea was smooth, not too sweet and looked gorgeous too
K Y Artful & Refreshing Specialty Drinks
Creative presentation and colorful signature drinks like iced taro and blue wintermelon tea bring visual delight to the dining table.
I had the blue wintermelon tea which is so pretty, it felt shameful to drink it.

CHINH-YUAN HUANG (Jeff HUANG) Feed Me Menu
Wife and I had the $59 feed me option and let me tell you, everything was excellent. Serving sizes were generous, so much so that we had to take away what we couldn't fit in.
David Lee Pork Belly Bao
Everyone should try their Pork Belly Bao, very close to tradition taste in Taiwan!

K Y Honey Beer

Wendy Crosby Garlic Green Beans
Loved the dumplings, fried rice and green beans.
Annie Prawn Toast
The prawn toast was wonderfully crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Topped with salmon roe and paired with a lightly spicy sauce, it delivered layers of flavor and texture, making it one of the standout dishes of the meal.

Practical advice on reservations, portions, and parking for your visit
Book ahead for dinner
Table spaces fill up fast during busy dinner sessions, so reserve ahead to secure your seating without waiting.
Plan for generous portions
Portions are notably generous and feed-me options easily leave extra food, so come prepared with space for takeaways.
Check parking options in advance
Street parking arrangements in Bowden can be tricky, so confirm parking instructions when you reserve.
