LIFE’S FLAVORS 6/8- Let’s Eat Food Trucks ~ Jen’s Kitchen ~ ALLISON LIBBY-THESING OF THE OAKS BED & BREAKFAST

Jen and her husband recently moved to North East Texas from Washington State and found that they really enjoyed the city and environment in Sulphur Springs, but the variety of ethnic foods to be lacking.  She decided to put her family history to work and created the Jen’s Kitchen food truck to bring a little bit of Korean food to East Texas.  

Jen adapted her family recipes that her mother used in her career and gave them her own American appeal, a little sweeter and not quite as spicy.  You can find Jen’s Kitchen parked at the Rail Yard and with summer hours from 10 am – 9 pm Monday thru Saturday.  The meals purchased here are just like what they would eat at home everyday, so you can add some variety to your dining options in a quick and easy fashion. 

We enjoyed a sampling of their menu today and I brought along two of my favorite food testers to let me know which dish was their favorite.  Hands down they both enjoyed the Teriyaki Chicken.  They said the chicken was cooked perfectly and the flavor tasted amazing.  “The flavors went Kaboom in my mouth,” stated Quintten.Their second choice is the Beef Bulgogi. Each dish came with fresh steamed rice and a beef patty that both boys really enjoyed.  The coleslaw had great flavor as well and over all they enjoyed their meal from Jen’s Kitchen. 

The homemade kimchi was fantastic too.  The spice hits just right and is a great way to finish off your meal.  I’m not sure if they gave us some dessert because Quintten was starving or if that is something they do on the regular, but a little marshmallow cookie was found in our bag and everyone enjoyed trying something different.  
 We can’t wait to head back to the Rail Yard to try something new.  I know they have one more spot open if you know of a food truck looking to park and establish a following.  Until then head on over there and enjoy from fresh, homemade Korean food, that will not disappoint.
