This new Mississippi Coast food truck turns American favorites into Asian street food
Katsu chicken curry. A cheesesteak-style sammy with kimchi. A hot dog with teriyaki and nori.
Those are just some of the flavor combinations you’ll find at Hungry Homiez, one of the Mississippi Coast’s newest food trucks.
The spot is hidden in plain sight off Washington Avenue in St. Martin, right in front of Ben’s Boat Dock.
The owners of the food truck keep locals in the loop on which days they will be open on their Facebook page. They typically open around lunchtime and will stay open until there is no more food.
The menu is small and diverse. Offerings include plates, sandwiches and even “glizzy” hot dogs. You can also get Thai popsicles and sugarcane drinks.
Some of the menu items include:
- Korean Chopped Cheese: A chopped beef patty with American cheese, kimchi, lettuce and tomato stuffed inside of a hoagie roll.
- Vietnamese Birria Tacos: Three braised beef tacos with queso, onion and cilantro served with bo kho, a Vietnamese beef stew, consomé.
- Katsu Chicken Curry: A fried chicken breast with white rice and Japanese style curry
- Japanese Glizzy: Beef hot dog in a Hawaiian bun topped with mayo, sauteed onions and peppers, teriyaki sauce and nori flakes
Hungry Homiez takes cash and credit or debit cards and has covered outdoor seating.
