"In a press release, Faison said the concept draws from her days running Tiger Mama, which served a fusion of Southeast Asian cuisine. In the opening menu at Tigerbaby, you'll find influences of Thai and Vietnamese, but also more Eastern Asian influences as well, with dishes like Thai basil chicken, black pepper beef and broccoli, and Vietnamese cold coffee."
"But different from the sit-down experience at Tiger Mama that brought diners dishes like short rib crudo or a massive platter of marinated duck, Tigerbaby will fit the mold of what downtown diners are looking for at a food hall like High Street Place: quick and easy food that they can even order for carry-out if they're on the go. Other dishes include tangerine chicken, popcorn dumplings, Lucky Buddha Beer, transfusion drinks, and Tiger Thai tea."
"Tigerbaby is now the fifth concept inside High Street Place from Faison's Big Heart Hospitality. There are, of course, other restaurants and bars in High Street Place that serve everything from fried chicken sandwiches to craft cocktails. But clearly this food hall - which had a significantly delayed opening due to the pandemic - likes working with Faison. Bubble Bath, Charming Gardener, Dive Bar, and Tenderoni's are all under the Big Heart Hospitality umbrella."
Tigerbaby opens Feb. 17 in High Street Place in downtown Boston as a counter-service iteration of Tiger Mama. The menu draws on Southeast Asian and broader East Asian influences with dishes such as Thai basil chicken, black pepper beef and broccoli, Vietnamese cold coffee, tangerine chicken, and popcorn dumplings. The concept prioritizes quick, carry-out-friendly service suited to food-hall diners, rather than the sit-down tasting-style offerings that featured short rib crudo and marinated duck at Tiger Mama. Tigerbaby is the fifth High Street Place concept under Big Heart Hospitality alongside Bubble Bath, Charming Gardener, Dive Bar, and Tenderoni's.
