Old Bay Shrimp Bao Buns Recipe: A Step-by-Step How-To | Eater

"Helmed by Steve Chu and Ephrem Abebe, this Baltimore restaurant is celebrated for its inventive mashup of Asian and African street-food flavors. A standout is their Old Bay shrimp bao buns with mango-papaya slaw: Old Bay–poached shrimp tossed in a mayo–Sriracha–Old Bay sauce are nestled into steamed bao and finished with a crunchy, tropical mango–papaya–carrot slaw, producing a cold, flavorful, and refreshing bite where Sriracha-laced heat is immediately cooled by the slaw. The build-your-own-bao format fits festive crab-feast gatherings, and the dish is recommended as a perfect pairing with steamed crabs and a crisp beer. The kitchen aims to give guests a real “tour of flavor,” focusing on bold, hospitality-forward dishes that leave diners satisfied." - Jess Mayhugh
