The Pakalachian Food Truck - Daal Me Up with pickled collards - Fantastic!

The Pakalachian Food Truck

This was once a food truck, but now has opened a stall in a mixed use space in downtown Abingdon. I…read morehad researched the food truck during my various trips through the area over several years, but was never able to attend one of its limited appearances. As such, I had an unusually long time to contemplate what Appalachian-Pakistani fusion might taste like. Amazing, as it turns out. Their signature vegetarian dish is a hearty lentil stew delivered over mashed potatoes. I got my greens in by adding pickled collard greens and a seasonal ramp chutney. I was greeted with a resplendent mix of warm and savory flavors that was hard to stop eating. Their chai was a bit sweet and had an interesting spice blend. Availability is very limited, with both a small menu and some options running out towards the end of the day, bearing in mind that they close early. As a full restaurant, it wouldn't measure up. Maybe they'll get there some day. As it is, I would suggest coming early. There are some good restaurants in Abingdon, but you won't find food like this anywhere else.

My husband and I are foodies and we are hikers. Unfortunately, many places we go for our hiking…read morevacations do not have great food options. I do my research and occasionally we drive a little farther for good meals. While in the area, we went to the Abingdon Commons in order to try The Pakalachian. Our first visit we tried the Daal Me Up with pickled collards. It was so delicious, that we had to make another drive in for more a couple of days later. We ordered more food than we could eat because living out-of-state, we knew it would be our last chance for a long while. Everything we ordered (another Daal Me Up, Saag with Grits, and Curry Me Down South) was AMAZING! The idea to marry Indian and Southern cuisines is genius and works so well. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Not only is this place top-notch for the area, it is excellent for any area! I hope to be able to recreate some of their wonderful dishes at home until we are in Southwest Virginia again!
