Roy Choi will be serving chicken dumpling burgers out of a food truck this Friday, October 21st. It's not his truck, though...
NYC chef Daniel Humm and restaurateur Will Guidara (of the legendary and Michelin-starred Eleven Madison Park and The NoMad) are bringing a food truck to L.A. ahead of their first West Coast outpost of The NoMad, which will open Downtown next year.
They're rolling in their truck this Friday (fresh from Desert Trip), and it will be open Mondays through Fridays, 11:30 to 2:30 p.m. You'll be able to find its changing location via their Twitter, but this Friday's location will be The Line Hotel (at 3515 Wilshire).

The truck will feature popular dishes from their New York location, with the added twist of bringing in "some of our favorite L.A. chefs [to] challenge them to a chicken burger showdown of epic proportions." The first to be challenged is Roy Choi, who will be serving up his dumpling burger through the end of November. Sadly, there's no photo of that one yet, so here's the NoMad's regular chicken burger offering:

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
