About Judge Bao:

Hello! Judge Bao is a modern Chinese pop up eatery run by “Sauce Boss” Jamie and “Bun Hun” Debbie. We create dishes with a modern spin whilst staying true to their traditional Chinese flavours. Our ethos is to create Chinese foods that are authentic, hearty and wholesome. We want to break the taboo of Chinese food being cheap, unhealthy and unethical through our dishes and our choices as a business. Our artisan baos are hand rolled from scratch, and we only use free range meats and eggs, GMO-free soy beans, seasonal local produce as well as compostable packaging.

We began our journey at the beginning of 2015, starting out as a humble food stall at the summer markets. Our brand and experiences have since grown: we participated at The Food Show 2015 and Heart Of The City Street Eats 2015, moved into Coco’s Cantina and ran their restaurant with our pop up Chinese menu for two weeks, as well as operating a pop up restaurant at 12 O’Connell Street with Tiger Burger. We are honoured to be listed as one of Metro's Top 100 Cheap Eats of 2015, and being awarded Metro's People Choice Award for Best Pop Up 2015. We also had the pleasure to open ArtDego 2015 with our two centrepiece canapés.

So far in 2016, we kicked off the Anno Domini series held at Auckland Art Gallery for being the first eatery to serve food at their roof top concert. We had the pleasure to travel out of Auckland to Tauranga and join the On The Lawn festival, followed by Laneway 2016. And for Chinese New Year, we teamed up with Noel Leeming and held a series of live cooking demonstrations at four of their stores.
