Meaty Taiwanese "burgers" on the Lower East Side.

Not to be confused with one of the many restaurants owned by Michael “Bao” Huynh, this tiny Lower East Side eatery serves up gua bao, or something like a Taiwanese burger. Wrapped in an Asian bun, the gua bao come in a couple different varieties: the ultra meaty Haus Bao, Angus skirt steak that has been marinated in 100-proof sorghum booze, and Chairman Bao, ultra-tender Niman Ranch pork belly that is cooked in cherry Coca-Cola. The pork belly bao could use more filling, but is the better of the two. There are also “fries,” which are fried buns, cut like french fries and sweetened with a drizzle of sesame sauce.
