q.	what is bao?
a.	in case you were wondering how to say it, bao rhymes with “chow.” traditionally, bao is a doughy little orb of barbecued meat- or vegetable-filled heaven. our bao is a bit different though. we took the same tasty dough, rolled it flat and stuffed it with our own innovative, asian-inspired fillings.
q.	traditional? how long has bao been around?
a.	bao dates back to 3rd century china. it was possibly the first fast food as its clever design made it ideal for storage and transport. and since all good things stick around, bao has been enjoyed throughout asia ever since. now, with our modern twist, we’re convinced it’ll make a lasting impression stateside.
