Originating from Bangkok’s Chinatown, this dish created by Chinese immigrants blends the essence of two major Eastern cultures. With over 40 years of zongzi-making expertise, it once created a legend in Bangkok’s Chinatown. At that time, it was loved not only by the Chinese community but also deeply attracted locals in Thailand. The WANG STEAK chef team traveled there to learn the craft, bringing this one-of-a-kind Shrimp Paste Pork Zongzi to Taiwan—2,500 kilometers away from Bangkok. Since its launch, it has been well-received by customers.

A return of Bangkok Chinatown’s classic—Shrimp Paste Pork Zongzi makes a strong comeback with authentic Thai flavors
Unlike traditional zongzi, the Shrimp Paste Pork Zongzi replaces the usual soy sauce aroma with delicious shrimp paste, which is stir-fried together with glutinous rice and spices. It’s filled with a variety of ingredients such as marbled pork belly, salted egg yolk, mushrooms, and peanuts—all fragrant and flavorful. Wrapped in bamboo leaves and steamed, the rice carries not just the taste of shrimp paste but also a hint of coconut milk. It perfectly presents Thai flavors while suiting the general palate. Finally, it’s drizzled with a specially prepared Thai-style spicy sauce, adding layers of sour, spicy, and sweet tastes that elevate the deliciousness even more.
WANG STEAK’s uniquely unforgettable aromatic zongzi—Shrimp Paste Pork Zongzi—is now on limited, hot sale at WANG STEAK, WANG EXPRESS, 1010 Xiang, and Very Thai branches nationwide.
