About Chicago Lunchbox

Chicago Lunchbox, established by Tanya and John Nguyen in 2013, is a popular food truck that brings a fusion of Asian flavors to the streets of Chicago. This innovative food truck offers a delightful mix of traditional dishes from Vietnam, Korea, Thailand, and the Philippines, each with a unique twist. You can often find Chicago Lunchbox at 1535 W Devon Ave and various events around the city.

The menu at Chicago Lunchbox is diverse and exciting. Signature items include the "Rice Box," which allows you to choose from proteins like grilled beef marinated in a sweet Korean sauce, grilled pork in a savory Vietnamese sauce, ground chicken stir-fried with basil and peppers, and sweet Filipino longanisa pork sausage. Each dish is served over steamed rice and dressed with house-pickled daikon and carrots, cucumber, red onion, and cilantro. Another favorite is the "Fire Rangoon," crispy fried wontons stuffed with jalapeno cream cheese and served with a sweet and sour dipping sauce.

Chicago Lunchbox is known for its vibrant flavors and commitment to quality. The food truck frequently appears at popular locations such as the NEMA Chicago apartments and various local festivals. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or enjoying their catering at a private event, Chicago Lunchbox offers a culinary experience that stands out in the city’s food truck scene.
