American (New) Food Trucks in Virginia

Signature Dish:
Chicken Adobo, chicken adobo sliders, vegetable pancit, and lumpias.

About Us:
I started House of Lumpia simply because of my love and passion for food and feeding people. My close friends gave me the name House of Lumpia because of my delicious lumpia and the different styles of Lumpia that I would come up with. I then decided it was time for me to start my business and show everyone was House of Lumpia has to offer.

Signature Dish:
Paninis, Paella, and Ratatouille

About Us:
I am Laura Daab, the Chef/Owner of Bikini Panini food truck and have been an avid cook most of my life. My favorite memories come from the yellow kitchen in my childhood home where my mom cooked and baked constantly. Learning from her and inspired by my favorite cuisine, I focus on Coastal Mediterranean cooking that incorporates lots of fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients.

Starting Bikini Panini was an unplanned opportunity and reinvention for me. My degree is in Marketing Communications and I was a theatrical producer for 20 years with a company I owned with my husband, Jim. We were hit hard by the Great Recession and shut our doors 5 years ago. I struggled to find a full-time, corporate job so I freelanced as a house painter, Marketing/PR Manager for a local theatre company, and worked on a frozen yogurt truck for a while.

One day, Jim drove by an auto auction near our house in Church Hill and saw a food truck being cleaned-up for sale. We bid on the truck and won! It’s a cute little step van that was repossessed from a Panini business in DC. “Why reinvent the wheel?’ I thought, so I spent the next 3 months fixing up the truck and developing my menu that along with 5 different Panini sandwiches includes Paella, Ratatouille with Curried Couscous and assorted baked good, ice cream and Italian Ices. I recently added a Kid’s menu that includes a Grilled Cheese Panini and a Breakfast menu with a Spanish Torta, Breakfast Panini and other goodies!

I’ve been in business since January of 2017 and have done very well. It’s challenging, rewarding, tiring, gratifying, and glorious! I belong to the Richmond Food Truck Association and I work pretty much all over the Metro Richmond Area. I’ve been a featured chef several times on WTRV’s “Virginia this Morning” demonstrating cooking segments of my food on Bikini Panini. Bikini Panini was also voted Best Food Truck in Virginia and featured in an article titled, “Top 50 Best Food Trucks in the US” by Eat This, Not That food magazine. You can find Bikini Panini at breweries and wineries, corporate lunches, street festivals, block parties, fundraisers, private events, weddings…pretty much any kind of an event that needs mobile food.

I’m working at what I love and have learned there is always time for another adventure and a challenge to reinvent oneself! Cheers!

As a lifelong resident of Alexandria, I wanted to create a business that would put smiles on faces and become a beloved part of our city's fabric.

THE BANH MI HAUTE DOG- FEATURED AS BEST IN AMERICAN - FOOD NETWORK

About Us:
Some would call us a fast casual restaurant, 'the fancy hot dog place".Unexpected lobster roll spot, family friendly or neighborhood spot - we identify as all but first and foremost we are family and extend that warmth to every guests. Our concept blossomed at the suggestion of our founder, Pamela Swanson's father during the 2008 recession. "Keep it simple, everyone loves a hot dog - take it up the culinary totem pole." this is
the message that still guides us today and pushes us forward. The American classic frank was deconstructed and redesigned to not strip it of it's essence but thoughtfully embrace it. Partnering with local gourmet bakeries, butchers, farmers
and purveyors has allowed us to re-invent the preconceived notion that a hot dog is only appropriate for ballparks and children's birthday parties - but let's not dismiss those golden memories either. "We believe in the power of food that is
locally grown and crafted with true love and extreme care" We griddled our first gourmet hot dog in May of 2009 in Purcellville,VA, expanding into an additional brick & mortar in Old town Alexandria in 2012. We partnered with the Washington National's to open our first concession in National's Park in 2015, expanding into a secondary location in the
park in 2020 and a 3rd in 2022. HD&F plans to open additional concessions and locations throughout the DMV.

Signature Dish:
Fat Philly Sandwich

About Us:
We have been involved in the Hospitality/service industry for over a decade! During COVID a lot of restaurants and bars closed for a brief period time and some of them did not rehire their full time staff and management in order to try and save the expense on labor while there was great uncertainty in this world. Jobless with a ton of experience we decided to work odd jobs during the pandemic in order to save up enough money to open up our very own restaurant on wheels! We wanted to offer a menu that could cater to people of all ages and dietary restrictions to make sure we truly have something for everyone!

Come 2021 we made the trip from NJ down to VA in order to help start our business a little quicker, because at the time the mandates were a little looser and the abundance of opportunity in this area could not be surpassed. We wanted to incorporate our NJ culture and the type of sandwiches and cuisine we offer to the great people of the DMV area. We try to offer a creative menu to our customers that will hopefully having them coming back for more! Fresh and quality ingredients are our backbone and how we think we really differentiate ourselves from our competition!! Come try us out and get greasey!

Signature Dish:
Waffledog. Like a corn dog but instead of cornbread the hot dogs are encased in a waffle.

About Us:
I have always loved working in the restaurant business and as a Navy wife it was easy finding waitressing positions that fit our schedule when we would transfer to new duty stations. I have dreamed of opening my own restaurant someday and when the opportunity to purchase a food trailer came along I couldn't pass it up. The trailer was used for cotton candy and popcorn at events and we kept that along with adding waffle dogs and stick waffles. It has been fun and exciting experimenting with different waffle recipes including a yummy cinnamon bun waffle that was a big seller at a recent event.

Signature Dish:
Açaí and dragon fruit bowls
