Foodie Alert: Dim Sum Truck Preview
Alex Chu is ready to take your order at Dim Sum Truck (soft opening this week)
Yesterday, I was invited to check out the Dim Sum Truck. I had first seen them at the VIP Lounge serving up tasty dim sum in the VIP lounge at the LA Street Food Fest.
chicken and BBQ pork buns
Since it was a preview, I didn’t expect much but Alex is very personable and every time I turned around, another morsel was coming out of what he termed a giant dim sum cart.

trio of dim sum
turnip cake
The best part of the tasting was watching Alex torch up the egg tarts. It must be so much work to prepare all the dim sum before the truck rolls out so it’s nice to see that last minute addition that makes the food item.

I can’t wait for the Dim Sum Truck to officially roll out since I want to try the Peking Duck Tacos and Spicy Tofu Mulitas!
Oh my goodness. A dim sum truck. This is so amazing. You guys must make Alex Chu super successful so a truck can drive to Canada ;]

I’m so jealous you chosen few were invited! I hope to try this some time….and not have to wait in such a long line! I guess by default, I’m going to have to. I lost my chance to try them when I waited too long to get a VIP ticket at food fest cuz they sold out!
