Ekiben

Baltimore


The 'neighborhood bird' at this Asian fusion box of deliciousness is a sight to behold, and then devour: a giant piece of curry-fried chicken practically leaping from the pillowy embrace of a soft steamed bun. Buns and bowls are the draw at this tiny spot. With just a few tables and stools, it's best for takeout.
