Tucked away in Fortitude Valley, NOM NOM BAO dishes out fluffy steamed buns, fragrant noodle salads, and spontaneous karaoke. The little corner draws concertgoers from The Fortitude Music Hall and late-night crowds craving quick, substantial bites over draft beer. Regulars point to the lemongrass pork belly noodle salad—tumbled with fresh herbs, peanuts, and crisp shallots—alongside juicy chicken and crispy tofu baos. After dark, dinner often slides into open-mic karaoke, with guests picking up microphones between rounds of pork gyoza and house cocktails.
- Free Weekend Karaoke: Diners can grab the mic and sing along during energetic weekend evenings at no extra charge.
- Pre-Show Fortitude Valley Dining: Speedy orders of pork belly noodle bowls, gyoza, and steamed bao cater to concertgoers before shows.
- Six-Course Group Banquet: Six generous Asian fusion courses offered at $35 per person for casual group dinners.
