When East meets West: Bao-zza!

When East meets West: Bao-zza!

 Sometimes, it’s difficult to decide whether to eat Western food or Chinese food. But, now if you can’t decide on Chinese food or Western food, don’t worry! There’s perfect solution for you who wish to eat both Chinese food and Western food : Bao-zza! Bao-zza is a combination of steamed bun, or Baozi in Chinese and Pizza. This unique food consists of Chinese steamed bun and stuffed with pizza fillings, like chopped vegetables, pork, and shrimp. Alex Cree and Loren Heinold are the Entrepreneurs who have the idea to combine two kinds of food into one. And now, they have opened up a store selling the fusion buns in Beijing. The idea first comes when Mr.Cree talked to Mr.Heinold about his thought of combining baozi with more American traditional flavours like burger or different things. Then, he started experimenting with the recipes while living in the U.S. He later quit his job and moved to China in 2016 to set up a shop in the basement of a Beijing shopping mall with Mr.Heinold. They are currently charging 20 yuan for two buns.
