So this is an Amy Yip Pau (葉子楣大包). For those who're not familiar, it's like a bakery selling a Dolly Parton Bun. XD This was from Nam Kee @ Turf Club City, Singapore.
Check out the size of that thing compared to my hand! It's around 5 inches in diameter I think.
Well, kinky innuendos aside, it *was* good to eat and good value too.
It was packed with large chunks of meat, in contrast to the minced meat mixed with fillers usually found in other buns. The meat was nicely marinated and the juices from the steaming process were retained, keeping the filling succulent, as you can see in its gleam in the right picture. But despite the juices, the bun was not soggy at all.
There was also almost a whole hard-boiled egg inside. (Or maybe it *was* a whole egg... I can't remember.)
This cost $4, which is expensive for a bun usually. But this one was chock full of meat and ingredients, and was a meal in itself. Along with the free laughs, it's well worth its price!

And man it attracted a lot of stares. Most people ordered it as a takeaway item. We were one of the few occupying the table nearest the stall entrance with a pair of gigantic buns sitting in front of us.
