From the moment we approached the counter window, the gentleman taking our order was kind and patient with us, as it was our first time trying Nepali fare. We ordered the Momos, a staple in Nepali cuisine, as well as the Mixed Chow Mein and the Sausage Sticks. We decided to try the Water Buffalo Momo's since we had never had it before. Wow, it was delicious! The Momos even came with a homemade chutney that was full of flavor. The Chilly Momo was our favorite and something we will definitely order again. We also loved the Mixed Chow Mein. This dish incorporates flavors from both India and China. It was such a unique taste and the toppings all tasted very fresh. Their portions are quite generous-- each Momo order came with ten pieces and we had plenty of the Chow Mein left over. Please note that this is take-out only, although they do have limited outdoor seating. We cannot wait to go back! @dcfoodgod

You can request your dumplings to be either pan-fried or steamed, and you have a choice of their homemade dipping sauces (Ginger Soy Vinaigrette, Peanut Sesame, or Spicy Basil Chili). I had heard about this food truck recently, so the hubs and I decided to stalk them and try them out for a weekday lunch. We were a little nervous, as I noticed that they can sometimes close during rainy weather, but luckily, they pushed through the rain, which eventually tapered off! We ordered the Pork and Cabbage Dumplings (pan-fried and steamed; these had a more cilantro-like flavor to the filling) and the Crunchy Vegetarian (pan-fried; these were more flat and elongated; I actually really enjoyed these, as they were great with the Ginger Soy Vinaigrette; I first thought that there was some meat inside, but I'm thinking it's either tofu or soy protein?). It was interesting that the Pork and Cabbage had more of a stronger herb-y taste rather than the Crunchy Vegetarian. The Asian Noodle Salad didn't look like the picture on their menu; however, it was still simple and fresh, made with rice noodles, sliced carrots, cucumbers, cilantro, and crushed peanuts; much better dressed with the peanut sesame sauce! The Veggie Fried Rice was tasty, especially adding the Ginger Soy Vinaigrette to it! I also tried their Lemon Ginger Tea, which I appreciated it not being too sweet. The staff here are super friendly, welcoming, and honest! They serve it up around various places in the NoVA area, so just check their social media to locate where they're at for the week.

Just outside the L'Enfant Plaza Metro stop (on the Maryland Ave side), you'll know you're in the right place by the crowds of Federal office workers queuing up for their favorite truck. There's a great variety from southern soul food to barbeque, from pho and banh-mi to Indonesion, from Philly cheese steaks to gyros. My daughters each had beef pho from the Pho-Nation and Vietnamese Food trucks (piping hot flavorful broth, plenty of noodles, slices of tender beef, cilantro, and accompanied with hot sauce and lime wedges on the side); my wife had the falafel salad from the Quick Bites truck which was outstandingly tasty and light, made with a chickpea and fava bean combination with a herb blend that gave them a unique green color on the inside; while I had the gyro platter from the same truck. Excellent lamb meat, well-seasoned, good tzatziki sauce, and accompanied by a fresh salad and stewed chickpeas. About $9 each for these meals and the trucks take credit cards. Don't settle for the tourist trap food trucks lined up near the Smithsonian museums -- these are terrible with microwaved pizza slices and hot dogs only ... make the short walk to these real food trucks and you won't be disappointed.

I was greeted by the owner Denny, who explained that once we order we're able to dine inside. The Jamaican vibe is heavily prevalent, with colors, paintings, foliage, and wooden sculptures throughout. I had my mind set on the Jerk Box N' Mac once I saw it on Instagram, and boy did it not disappoint. If you're a fan of spicy food, the heat is not lacking here. The jerk was jerking! I didn't find it overpowering to where I couldn't enjoy the meal. Even the mac and cheese had a little kick to it, even in its cheesy and creamy goodness. The slices of Rasta bread were a nice complement to the meal. You'll be hard pressed to find Jamaican food that checks all the boxes like Jerk at Nite.

The man running the food truck is a native Korean, so you know the cuisine is authentic. I ordered the Korean Fried Chicken Platter and the Jumbo Crispy Chicken and Fries.

One of the photos shows it went for around $12 only 3 years ago, but now it's $17 (inflation is peaking..) It's always an nice feeling seeing a food truck I haven't tried before, and it's great to do business with a small group like this, often times a family.

The music I experienced spread across multiple genres (African, r&b, reggae, hip hop, country, and pop) and was put forth by live musicians, DJs, and drag queens. Street formers were also off stage entertaining us with their percussion and brass instruments.

Since it's a massive festival almost every business along the H Street corridor is involved (except for Whole Foods and Starbucks). In addition, almost every food vendor and truck sets up shop at the festival. They have all kinds of food and there are many vendors selling arts and crafts (usually around 4th Street). There are also several staging areas, booths giving out water, and even a few stalls from churches. It's always a great time and you'll get a taste for all types of culture in the city. It's AWESOME!
