Jeow Chak Chan (spicy cicada dip) was an absolute hit at @artsplosure! Thank you for everyone who respectfully asked about it and learned more about how our culture prepares cicadas! Since we used all of mom’s back stock of cicadas; we’re off to forage for more! Let us know if you spot a bunch of cicadas in your area, we will come right over!#cicadas #laofood #entomophagy #bugfood #foodtruck #raleigh

ANNOUCEMENT!
‼️ANNOUNCEMENT‼️ We’re going to LAOS 🙏🏽🇱🇦!!
When our parents came to the United States in 1980 they left behind everything they knew to create a better life for themselves and their future. We been so blessed to have the life that we have, thanks to their sacrifice. Over the years everyone (except Sun) has gone back to Laos separately or in groups but never altogether. It was always work schedules or life just getting in the way. Now, we finally have the privilege to travel all together to the homeland 🥹🥹🥹🥹. We are so excited so experience this opportunity together and we hope to make memories that will last a lifetime. That being said we will not be operating between the end of February to mid-March but hope to come back grounded and ready to share new dish ideas to bring to the truck!
We are also on a mission to give back to our parent’s hometown in the countryside of Laos, in the Bolikhamsai Province. Nearly 23% of the total population of 7.2 million people in Laos are below the poverty line and Bolikhamsai remains one of the provinces highest poverty rates in the country. we’ve identified a local school in Pakkading (our moms village) who are in need of the following items: composite notebooks, paper, unsharpened pencils, socks, shoes, underwear, leisurely outfit sets *clothing should fit ages 5-13 - but honestly anything will help. If you’re interested in donating we will collect items Saturday, February 10th at the Lunar New Year celebration 11am-4pm if you’re not able to drop off we would be more than happy to pick up items. If you wish to give a monetary donation you can Venmo us at handle laolaofoodtruck.
Thank you so much for your support over the years, even if you’re not able to contribute please make a plan to stop by Lunar New Year at Raleigh Iron Works this weekend to celebrate and support local Asian - owned businesses.
Queen Latifah knows how to support small businesses! Shop small & shop local this holiday season! #lenovo #evolvesmall Lenovo #queenofsmall
Our parents dream is coming closer to a reality and we could not have done it without your support! We all have been hard at work trying to get the truck up and running and we’re almost there! 2020 was a tough year for everyone, but we are ready to jump into 2021 full throttle with exciting events in the upcoming months, so be sure to follow us to stay on top of where we will be next and the latest news updates. It’s exciting to think about what we have coming up this year but it wouldn’t have been a possibility without our parents. Here’s a video tribute to the foundation of our family, our parents! We hope you all enjoy this video and be sure to stop by our pop-up tomorrow (see previous post). #laolaofoodtruck #foodtruck #littlelaoinamerica #foodie #raleighfoodtruck #durhamfoodtruck #instafood #lao #laofood #laofoodmovement #bensound Video: @mydarlingmars @tdunderwood85 @laurawalters @jess.ash.k Music: www.bensound.com
