Universal Orlando Resort has opened an all-new quick service food venue called Bend The Bao at Universal CityWalk, featuring a variety of delicious items that fuse popular Asian cuisine with diverse ingredients like crab cakes, pork belly, kimchee fried chicken and more – creating an entirely new mash-up that “bends” the idea of a traditional bao.
Bend The Bao will be the latest original concept dining experience created exclusively by Universal Orlando, combining unique theming with an extraordinary twist on the traditional quick service restaurant. Incredibly-colorful pop art representing the creatures of the Chinese Zodiac will welcome guests to the venue, where they can grab tasty bao buns like the Crab Cake Bao with Maryland-style crab cake, shredded lettuce and mustard aioli, the Duck Bao with braised duck, kimchee slaw, XO sauce, cilantro and five spice aioli, and more.
Bend The Bao will be located on the second level of Universal CityWalk, adjacent to the Universal Cinemark theatre, and will open daily from 10:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. beginning Tuesday, June 15.
