Bolay

Bolay is a health-conscious fast food concept where you can order along an assembly line. Patrons build a “bol” (pronounced “bowl”) starting with a base of choices like cilantro noodles or black forbidden rice. To that, you can add layers of vegetables like Paleo Brussels, proteins like BBQ Chicken and Ahi Tuna and top it all off with Parmesan Cheese or a selection of flavorful sauces. Quick and family-friendly, Bolay can be enjoyed on location or on the go.
