Cheers to a new year! (With many great things to come!)

As this new year approaches, we look back on 2009 and cannot believe how far Nom Nom has come. Although we did not launch until August 2009, we came up with the bringing-Banh Mi-to-LA concept back in March. Even though nothing could have prepared us for what was to come (how were we to know that we would run out of Banh Mi within 30 minutes into our launch?!), 2009 was an amazin’ year for the Nom. Although we will be entering 2010 minus a partner (David will be off onto other non-Nom things), we feel confident that we have many more great moments to come in 2010- new Beef Banh Mi sandwich, feature in our fav magazine (Sunset!), and possible Brick and Mortar location!- and we hope that you will be there to share those wonderful moments with us.

Without our fans (you! :D) we would not be here today. We would like to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for all of the dedication and support you have offered Nom Nom these last 6 months. You all were there to tell us our parking meter was low, give us the low down on locations, and spread the word about the Nom! Without you, there would be no Nom Nom, and we are so grateful for your ongoing luv of the Nom!

With luv with wishing you an amazing new year,
Your Nom Nom gals,
Misa + Jen

Usually it’s pretty easy to find a bright neon green truck with a smiley face, but unfortunately when we serve Lionsgate, it can be very very tricky to find us! We have created this handy-dandy treasure map to help you find us (thanks to the help of amazin’ google maps!) and we hope that you can spot us easily this Wednesday!

Please note that you can enter the little alley we are on either by 26th avenue or from Stewart, see ya’ll soon!nomnomtreasuremap

ARMORED swag bag from Sony

The fine folks over at Sony sent us a box of swag for the new movie ARMORED (you know, that movie about some security guys robbing a truck full of money starring Matt Dillon…MATT DILLON!  Lawrence Fishburne is also in it…)  to hand out to our happy Nom Nom visitors this week.  So beginning Wednesday afternoon we’ll be handing out free ARMORED t-shirts and movie passes to see an advanced screening at The Bridge Cinema De Lux (the big theatre off the 405) on Thursday, December 3 at 7:30 pm.  If you want to see the movie a day early, and for free, come drop by the truck to grab your tickets!

After a beautiful Thanksgiving weekend, we’re back to hittin’ the streets, serving our famous Banh Mi Vietnamese Sandwiches! We’re headed to a few new locations this week, most notably heading out to downtown LA for lunch for the first time! We’re planning to be somewhere near 5th and Olive St. by Joe’s Autopark. We don’t know the area all that well, so hopefully everything works out just fine. Hope to see all your hungry DT’ers out there!

The rest of the week we’ll be spending a lot of time on the Westside, with some Hollywood, Little Tokyo and Silverlake mixed in. This Friday we’ll be back on Abbot Kinney for “First Friday”, which is always fun! Last month there were 16 food trucks out there! It was a pretty surreal experience and we highly recommend coming out to sample all the food! With the introduction of a few new trucks (Frysmith, Little Spoons, Buttermilk to name a few), we may hit a new food truck record out there this Friday!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! See you out at the truck!
