I am suffering a serious mama-jamma craving for a chinese steamed pork bun from a street vendor in Leicester Square.
They are about the size of a grapefruit (so not the little dim-sum ones). I need to know if I can reasonably fit it in to my meal plan tomorrow.

Anyone have many idea how many calories?

Ha ha! My stomach actually just gave a little groan as I was writing this.... I cant disappoint it!

PS. It's 1.00am here in the UK....that's how desperate I am.... :cry:

    I get the frozen Cha Sui Bau. Serving size is 1 Bau(size is about that of baseball cut in half) 210 calories. So, maybe use that and multiply by 2...??? Not all that bad if it's lunch.
