About the event
The story begins with Wow Bao, a restaurant that decided to honor these steamed buns. They opened their doors in 2003, bringing bao to the masses in Chicago. Fast forward to 2017, and they thought, �??Why not have a whole day dedicated to bao?�?�
And just like that, National Bao Day was born�??�??�??�??. This day is about celebrating a rich Chinese tradition that dates back centuries.
Would you believe bao has existed since the 3rd century CE? That�??s a lot of years of bun innovation! With its roots in China, bao has traveled the globe, making friends far and wide, thanks to its versatile nature�??�??�??�??.
Now, every year on August 22nd, folks from all walks of life come together to celebrate bao in all its forms. Restaurants whip out the deals, kitchens turn into bao-making stations, and social media lights up with #NationalBaoDay.
It�??s a day where everyone can be a bao connoisseur, trying out new flavors and perhaps even mastering the art of bao making�??�??�??�??.
