Momogoose

Where to Lunch: For Fast Asian Fusion

A colleague at my old office turned me onto the Momogoose food truck and we caught this mobile Asian Cafe down by South Station. If you've picked up on my love of Asian soups, you'll know this was a great lunch choice. I ordered a beef ramen that came in a plastic to-go bowl with chopsticks and a soup spoon. Very flavorful broth-- my first bite in, I hit a jalapeno! This soup cut through any congestion or case of the blues I had and filled me up quickly with a mix of veggies and beef.

The next time I ran into the red Momogoose truck, I ordered the same entree. I was surprised to find the soup totally different (but just as delicious.) Instead of jalapenos, there were crunchy carrot cubes, potato, zucchini, and broccoli. This nutrient-packed version of their ramen bowl was more akin to beef stew (not what I expected from ramen), but I happen to love a beef stew. The flavor was much headier and I only missed the spark of the peppers for the first sip or so.

Besides ramen, they also offer pho as well as create your own baquette or bowl entrees. Sides include crispy or fresh rolls, and check their twitter (@momogoose) for daily specials.
