Rickshaw food trailer is part of a rich culinary history. |
Those old enough to remember Birmingham’s beloved Joy Young Restaurant might recall the little boy whose face was on the children’s menu. “They had a paper kids’ menu,” Chris Joe says, “and there’s literally a little black-and-white picture of me on on the kids’ menu.” Now 47, Chris – whose great-grandfather opened Joy Young more than a century ago – is bringing his own style of Asian-inspired cuisine to the city he calls home. His Rickshaw food trailer hit the streets of Birmingham late last summer. Find out more about his magical menu that includes everything from a pork belly banh mi and a General Tso’s chicken sandwich to fried potstickers and dandan noodles here. (OK, are y’all hungry now too?) |
