Baolicious Chicken Kare Bao and other amazing baos will be available for breakfast starting next Thursday at Punk Foodie @ Ponce. Also find them at Roundtrip on Saturday.

The low-down on underground dining this week for greater Atlanta–ITP and OTP. 

Punk Foodie @ Ponce is extremely excited to be hosting a Talat Market x OK Yak collab. They are also setting up a dim sum breakfast with Asian coffee. We expect that the Soupbelly sandwich drop will have a line out the door at Leftie Lee’s and Godtöh, Tony’s, and Krupana kick off residencies on the East and West sides, while Mighty Hans x Stolen Goods do Chinese Takeout Night at Tio Luchos. 

THE GUIDE

Chef Parnass Savang of Talat Market x Chef Corban Irby of OK Yaki, Pepper’s Hot Dogs, Baolicious, and TanBrown Coffee @ Punk Foodie at Ponce on Monday – ITP – O4W

An absolutely mammoth chef collab event is taking place at the stall on Monday. Michelin Guide Recommended Restaurant @talatmarketatl meets East Atlanta Japanese powerhouse @okyakiatl and everyone’s taste buds will benefit from this Asian Street Food extravaganza. Expect a short menu that packs a lot of punch with dishes like Five Spiced Pork over rice (khao kha mu), Mentaiko Pasta which is a classic Japanese wafu dish of coated pasta with brined spicy cod roe with Japanese seasonings and butter. Last but certainly not least, be sure to try the sweet Taiyaki, a fish shaped cake with red bean filling. This is a Limited Edition event…ordering ahead is highly recommended. 

On Tuesday @peppershotdogs takes over the stall all day to sling gourmet glizzies including their famous Damn Dog, Nola Dog, NYC Dog, and ATL Dog. Also available for delivery. 

A special addition for all of us with Dim Sum & Coffee at the stall with  @baolicious.atl’s amazing handmade baos and @tanbrowncoffee Asian sourced coffee kicking off this Thursday 7AM-2PM. After that, they will be at the stall every day Monday-Friday 7am-10pm.
