Baojaam Taiwanese Gua Bao at Balti Jaama Turg

Sponsored by Visit Estonia

Located in in Telliskivi, Balti Jaama Turg is the modern food market in Tallinn (there’s also a more traditional one called Tallinn Central Market). Baojaam is our favorite food stall here, serving Taiwanese-inspired gua bao – soft steamed buns filled with meat and vegetables. The buns are made from scratch in the tiny kitchen, but with wheat flour instead of rice. Head chef Mihkel Rand worked at NOA Chef’s Hall and got inspired to start experimenting with baos by a colleague who made them for staff meal there. Soon after, Rand left fine dining to pursue the simpler cooking of street food. Baojaam also has opened a location in the Tallinn old town.
