Our new weekly schedule is up, and we have a few new locations and a few oldies on there! As promised, we’re beginning to head out to the Silver Lake/Echo Park area a little more, and we start with Tuesday at 2515 Beverly Blvd. for lunch! We’re also heading out to the Lionsgate Building, Bar Lubitsch, The Avalon, Myspace, the Promenade, and Little Tokyo for the first time this week! Whew, that’s a lot of new locations! It’s always a little stressful going to a location for the first time. We never know how the parking situation is going to play out, how the crowd is going to be, how much food to bring, etc… Hopefully we see a lot of you out there and we have a great time!

Whew, what a day! Nom Nom Truck headed out to the 25th Annual Abbot Kinney Festival this past Sunday to serve our banh mi to the fine people of Venice and West Los Angeles! An expected 150,000 people were in attendance, and our truck and crew definitely felt the crowds! We had a great time out there, and the vibe and energy of the entire area was electric! We had lines from 10:00 am until closing down at 6:00 pm, so I think we definitely filled some hungry stomaches and introduced banh mi to some new people. Overall it was a great day, great business, great customers, and great company.
We arrived super early in the morning, before Abbot Kinney Blvd. was closed off. The festival set up a little side street specifically for food trucks, which was really cool. Fellow food trucks Gastro Bus, Baby’s Badass Burgers, Get Shaved, Cool Haus, Dosa Truck, Dough Dough’s, and Border Grill were all in attendance with us! (Thank you Dosa, Get Shaved and Cool Haus for the awesome food and treats!) I think festival visitors really appreciated the “food court” style truck parade we had going there, with a wide variety of foods and desserts right at their finger tips!
We’ll be looking forward to heading back out there in another year! After that 8 hour shift, we may need that long to recover!

Last week Nom Nom Truck ventured off to South Bay and parked at the Honda Building in Torrance. Even though food trucks are only allowed in a specific street located about fifteen minutes from the offices, people came out for their lunch break with a lil’ leg stretch to try us out! Special thank you for the whole Research and Development department for spreading the good eats!
We are all getting accustomed to driving the Nom out on the freeway and trying out new locations (which evidently means the occasional hairy u-turns and jigsaw puzzle-like parking situations). Thank you for those that came out from all over South Bay from our Twitter as well. We will surely be back to provide you with the banh mi fix!

Nom Nom Truck is headed out to the 25th Annual Abbot Kinney Festival this Sunday, September 27! We’ve been invited out to set up shop at The Brig on 1515 Abbot Kinney, and will be there from 10:00am until 6:00pm…or until food runs out! More than 150,000 people are expected to show up to the festival, so we’re not quite sure what to expect aside from it being absolutely CRAZY! We’ve got our entire team working at some point throughout the day, so we’ll all be doing our best to crank out the banh mi and feed all our hungry fans!
There are going to be a ton of vendors, too many bands and musical performers to list, and ridiculous amount of activities out there! For more information on the festival, including directions, music schedule, list of exhibitors, or anything else you may want to know, please visit http://abbotkinney.org/ See that picture above? That’s a shot of the crowd from last year! Crazy! If you want to get your “nom” on, maybe heading out sooner rather than later would be best! We’ll see you out there! =D

With week zero in full effect, Nom Nom Truck is finally making it out to UCLA for lunch tomorrow (Thursday)! As former (and current) Bruins, we’ve been looking forward to heading out to the streets of Westwood and bringing our banh mi with us! Look for us on Strathmore and Gayley at 11:30am in a bright green truck! Hopefully we can swoop in and grab a nice spot after street cleaning finishes up! We’ll see you there!
Oh, and big shout-out to Kimberley Wong from the Daily Bruin, who wrote a nice story on us two weeks ago!
