Sambok Food Stand

This FOOD STAND (and NOT A RESTAURANT) as such) is apparently a fixture in Pittsburgh’s Strip District. It’s just outside the Sambok Korean/Oriental Groceries. It’s a FOODIE’S GO-TO FOR STREET FOOD AND TAKEOUT😎😎😎. There’s only 5 on the menu: 1) Chicken Skewers, 2) Fried Pork Dumplings, 3) Mung Bean Pancakes, 4) Vegetable Lomein, 5) Chicken Vegetable Fried Rice. They are all very flavorful, and very very affordable prices $1.00 (dumpling) to $10.00 (large serving of lomein).👌👌👌😊😊😊. The Lomein and Fried Rice are Korean versions, subtle flavors 😋😋😋unlike the common overpowering soy-sauce based chinese-style American versions. The Dumplings are very good: they are packed with well-seasoned ground pork 👏👏👏. The Lomein, Dumplings and Fried Rice GO WELL WITH CHILI OIL 🌶️ 😎😎😎. The Mung Bean Pancakes are exquisitely Korean🤩🤩🤩. It has the punch of chili (heat level 3) with fragrant spices. THESE GO WELL WITH JASMINE GREEN TEA. Service is excellent. True street food that can be consumed while go down the Strip or as takeaway. FOR TAKEAWAY, REMEMBER TO BRING AN INSULATED BAG👍👍👍

The staff and the food are amazing! Definitely get the chicken on a stick, and I believe this is the same place that I would stop at with my parents 40 years ago. Nostalgic! ❤️

Cannot recommend this spot more to anyone looking for great street food. Can't miss the mung bean cake and lemongrass chicken skewer. We visit Pittsburgh often to see family and 3x per year is never enough!

Great mung bean pancakes
