We really enjoyed the food but found it quite pricey. Also we didn’t realise that dishes would be coming out two at a time, so my husband couldn’t have anything of the first two - doesn’t eat seafood, and my daughter nothing of the last two as she doesn’t eat red meat. 6 dishes between the 3 of us was sufficient but the timing was off. Taste was excellent and our waiter was very attentive.

We had a good Saturday lunch at Bao Down. The food was good, especially the open dumplings and the pork belly bao. Definitely will be back for supper next time. Great location

Internet Explorer

For Internet Explorer 9 or newer, simply follow these steps. For Internet Explorer 8 or earlier, the only difference is that “Internet Options” is found under the “Tools” menu button.

Click on the setting icon that looks like a Gear in the upper right corner.
Click on Internet Options in the Dropdown
The pop-up menu will show a variety of options, click on the “Security Tab”
On the Security Tab is a button that says “Custom Level” – click that.
This opens up a Security Settings pop-up, scroll down until you find the “Scripting” section.
Choose to Enable any site which has JavaScript.
Press OK on the Security Settings Pop-up, then the Internet Options Pop-up

Firefox

Firefox doesn’t have easy button access to JavaScript settings, but the procedure to enable/disable JavaScript is just as simple.

Go the URL and type “about:config” without quotes, and hit Enter.
This brings a page with a prompt to click a button labeled “I’ll be careful, I promise” – click this button.
This brings up a Preferences List, there is a toolbar at the top, type “javascript” into the tool bar and hit enter
This brings up a set of results, go to the one labeled “javascript.enabled” and double click it to switch it to enabled

That’s it, you can close the about:config tab without hitting OK, just close the window or type in a new page URL.

Chrome

Changing the JavaScript settings in Chrome is fairly simple, but requires navigating through a few menus.

Click the “Hamburger” icon of three vertical lines in the upper right.
Find the label called Settings and click that.
In the Settings Page, scroll down and find the hyperlink labelled “Show Advanced Settings…” Click that.
Under the advanced settings, there is a button labelled “Content Settings…” Click that.
This opens a pop-up, scroll down until you come to JavaScript Settings. Ensure that the slider is set to Allowed (recommended)”

For advanced users, managing the exceptions allows the user to either allow or disallow JavaScript on an individual page.

Opera

Enabling/disabling JavaScript in Opera is also extremely simple.

Click on the Opera button in the upper left corner
Click on the Settings Menu Selection
This brings up a new Settings page, click on the Websites option on the left navbar.
