What were we just saying about Asian food being the new food trucks? Wow Bao, the Lettuce Entertain You Asian dumpling concept in Water Tower and elsewhere, will start roaming downtown like a wandering ronin tomorrow, serving Bao Combo Boxes (6 bao, 2 whole wheat edamame, 2 spicy Mongolian beef, 1 BBQ pork and 1 chicken teriyaki) for $5. The press release we received on this said that the Wow Bao Truck would travel to media requests today; we were briefly tempted to see if it would give us a ride to pick up our kids at school or something, but decided, since you’ll be seeing plenty of pictures of it on the news tonight and all over the interbao tomorrow, to merely offer our own interpretation of what it might look like. In any case, we’re betting that if you want Wow Bao on Wednesday or beyond, your best bet will be the often-amusing voice of Wow Bao on Twitter, @Baomouth.
