Baroo Canteen, a mostly takeout and delivery service from Baroo partners Kwang Uh and Mina Park, will launch March 7 from a test kitchen at Union Swap Meet in East Hollywood. The duo says the cooking will be based on Baroo family meals, including a bowl called Chai Wan Dream with XO fried rice, organic chicken and fermented radish tops, served with a Korean-style egg drop dashi soup. Experimental specials will be offered, with a few counter seats also available. Uh and Park also say they are hoping to open a new Baroo “late this year.”
