"From dumplings to cold-skin noodles to Chinese hamburgers, this food truck parked near UT’s campus dishes out some of the best Chinese food in the city. The beef noodle soup, made with thick noodles, is also a prime choice for chilly weather. There’s no seating, so plan on taking your order to-go." - Erin Russell
"The campus truck offers excellent, familiar, comforting Chinese dishes, from Chinese hamburgers (aka roujiamo, a more flattened version of a burger with chewy bread and pork) to cold-skin noodles to dumplings. Takeout orders can be placed in person." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Parked in a tiny alleyway in West Campus, Chef Hong is a food trailer dishing out excellent renditions of Xi’an Chinese regional specialties, from chow mein and wonton soup to liangpi and roujiamo. As soon as the temps drop below 85°, we find ourselves craving the beef noodle soup, packed full of thick-cut, handmade noodles and a rich, savory broth that we usually can’t help but drink straight from the take-out container. Just know that this is entirely a to-go situation, so plan to bring this home, or position yourself on a nearby park bench and try not to burn yourself with delicious, hot soup like we have in the past.
