Really love the Bao buns here, my favourite is the Spicy Thai - the sauce is spicy and delicious. The Bao is fresh and soft and worth trying. They have various options and i am sure that everything tastes good. One Bao is small and may be should try more than one. The Fat fries here are good too, the kimcheenaise tastes in the fries is really good. The fries are thin and crispy. Overall it's a good experience. It's a self service restaurant and I recommend finding a seat before you load your hands your order! ????
Downsides: The prices aren't listed on the board, and I didn't realize you only get one Bao instead of multiple. A lot of plastic waste. Pros: The bao tastes really good and they offer a variety of options that allow you to try new things without having to get a lot. The vibes are really nice here, they play good music and the workers are nice.
An absolute MUST visit if you're in downtown Houston! We got the "curry fat fries", and for the bao's we got pork katsu, beef bulgogi, beef curry, pork belly and banana Nutella. I was absolutely blown away with not only GREAT the food tasted here, but the prices were fantastic for how much we were given. The staff is friendly, the restaurant is clean, it was an all-around awesome experience, and I look forward to my next visit as it can't possibly come soon enough. 5 big golden stars from me!
