"A few questions will cross your mind as you wait in line for a seat at Bao’s tiny original Soho restaurant. The first is whether it’s worth it, and the answer is yes. Yes, yes, and one more confit pork belly bao, please, yes. The second is how much Taiwanese fried chicken is too much fried chicken? Here the answer is never enough. Finally, you’ll wonder, dessert? No prizes for guessing what we think about the deep-fried bao with Horlicks ice cream. Come alone, come with a friend and, most importantly, come hungry." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
