Why everyone keeps coming back.

Nestled conveniently along MacArthur Highway at the CALTEX station in Bauang, La Union, Chowking Bauang offers a delightful journey into the heart of Chinese-Filipino fast food. Known for its vibrant mix of flavors, Chowking specializes in quick and satisfying meals that bring the best of traditional Chinese dishes fused with local Filipino favorites.

The menu here is a treasure trove for any fast food lover looking for hearty, flavorful, and shareable meals. One standout offering is the Summer Chowlebration Rice Meals for 2, a perfect package featuring a Chicken Lauriat, a second Lauriat of your choice, paired with refreshing drinks and halo-halo desserts that burst with sweet tropical goodness—ideal for cooling down on a hot day. The diverse Lauriat selections are packed with crunchy, juicy Chinese-style fried chicken or comforting noodles and siomai, all designed to satisfy cravings with rich sauces and perfectly cooked textures.

For larger groups, the Family Lauriat for 4 is an enticing spread. It offers a medley of best sellers like egg fried rice, pancit, siomai, and their signature Chicken Lauriat, creating a festive and savory feast that’s full of variety and joy—the perfect way to Chowlebrate together. The 12pc Fried Pork Siomai Platter is a must-try for dim sum enthusiasts, delivering golden, crisp bites packed with succulent pork flavor, making each piece a small celebration of texture and taste.

What truly elevates the Chowking Bauang experience is the warm and accommodating service, as noted by customers like Tracy Huang, who praised staff members such as Rona for going above and beyond to ensure patrons leave happy. Even during busy times or minor out-of-stock situations, the team’s friendly demeanor keeps the atmosphere welcoming and smooth, especially at their drive-thru—a convenient option for those on the go.

The dining atmosphere here is casual and lively, perfect for families, friends, or solo diners craving a quick but substantial meal.
