"A piece of art in the form of a dragon runs nearly the length of Bao Bao Dumpling House’s interior, a striking addition to this historic West End townhouse. Chef Cara Stadler’s cool Portland restaurant expands on her success at Brunswick gem Tao Yuan and benefits from the supplies of her aquaponics greenhouse, Canopy Farms, and her food production facility at Zao Ze Cafe & Market. Try the pan-fried beef bulgogi and steamed shaomai dumplings, garlicky smashed cucumbers, and a po’ boy with katsu-fried Winter Point oysters, pickled daikon, and hoisin tofu mayo on duck fat-toasted milk bread, all easy to share with a local beer or Miso Old Fashioned." - Stasia Brewczynski
