Out of curiosity - is there a reason why we should avoid Ekiben? Thank you!

They’re joking, it’s one of the best restaurants in Baltimore. Highly recommend! It’s just become a meme on this subreddit. I hope you enjoy your visit to Baltimore! Welcome!!

It’s definitely not one of the best restaurants in Baltimore.

It’s a very popular shop in Baltimore where they make chicken sandwiches with bao buns. It’s good, but it’s been so hyped that by the time I tried it, my expectations were definitely higher than what I got. It’s like that movie that you would have thought was “decent”, but because everyone said it was “amazing”, you leave the theater disappointed.

So I don’t agree with the commenter who says it’s “not good”, but I also wouldn’t plan my trip to Bmore around it…
