Our Story

just a truck and a Dream

Chicago is one of the premier culinary cities in the world, now boasting an up and coming food truck scene. We're proud to share our culture through our food - simply described as "Mom's home cooking." Thanks for sharing our journey with us!

“So, I quit my job, and bought this truck. An idea is all I had. Just a truck and my dream.”

July 2014, the Yum Dum Truck rolled out onto the streets. Not really knowing what to expect, we just wanted to share the food we grew up eating with you. Growing up in a restaurant family, Chef/Owner Jeff Wang knew he would find his way back into the kitchen. He just didn't know that kitchen would be in the back of a truck. Just over a year later, we've built up a large following, been featured in Chicago's most iconic events, and nominated for several accolades including the title as one of 'Chicago's Best Food Trucks.' We look forward to feeding you soon, Chicago!

Dumpling Making Parties

Want to learn how to make dumplings? We’ll teach you! Whether it’s hosting clients, date night, or just having fun with friends, we can accommodate groups of all sizes. We will provide all the tools, ingredients, and sauces. All the guests have to do is come ready for hands-on dumpling assembly. We’ll provide a demonstration on different ways to fold dumplings and then have guests try it themselves. At the end of class, we will have a family style meal with all the dumplings we made ourselves. Just remember, ugly or pretty, they will be delicious!
