Reply to comment by [deleted] in James Beard Awards recognize Ekiben and Foraged chefs — but not Cindy Wolf by Cody_in_Baltimore

I agree. Smh it's nice for the Baltimore restaurant scene I guess, but something is off. I don't understand the appeal of Ekiben, either. Maybe I am not eating the right things. Neighborhood bird. Like, it was OK, but I'm not breaking my neck to go back.

But congrats to folks who were recognized.

The tofu is the best thing on the menu.

I say that as a 6 foot 4 300 pound meat eater too.

The bowls with rice and pickled veggies included are better than the sandwiches

Same. The only great thing at Eikben is the sides. You can keep the rest. I get better bao buns at Doobys and chicken at Brd. They’re not worth the hype unless you’re not use to great food options
