One of the highlights is the bao lineup—stacked with satisfying textures and punchy sauces. The Spicy Lemon Chicken bao stands out for its balance of heat and brightness, featuring fried chicken tender goodness paired with ranch slaw, house pickle, scallions, and spicy lemon sauce. It’s the kind of sandwich that delivers big flavor in every bite.
