What is your favorite dish on the menu?

It's hard to choose one but I'd say our Garlic Noods are our favorite! The perfectly cooked, chewy ramen noodles mixed with our savory housemade garlic sauce make for one delicious bite.

About MANEATINGPLANT

  • Asian Owned (AAPI)
  • Women Owned
  • Mom & Pop Business
MANEATINGPLANT is a Los Angeles based food truck serving Asian comfort food with a playful, plant forward twist, rooted in the Taiwanese, Chinese, and Japanese heritage of owners Candice Tzeng and Phil Kwan. What started as a small pop up in Torrance now rolls through Los Angeles and San Diego inside Olive, their instantly recognizable school bus. The menu leans into nostalgia while keeping things fresh, showing how familiar flavors can shine in thoughtful, creative ways.

After adopting a fully plant based lifestyle in 2016, Candice and Phil noticed how many classic comfort cravings were left unanswered. Drawing on Phil’s restaurant experience and Candice’s background in photography and marketing, they built MANEATINGPLANT as a way to share food that feels comforting, exciting, and intentional. Every dish reflects their love of Asian home style cooking paired with a modern, compassionate approach.

MANEATINGPLANT brings personality to every stop, connecting guests with food that feels fun, satisfying, and purpose driven. With its mix of craveable plant based comfort and easygoing energy, this truck gives Los Angeles diners a reason to rethink what everyday comfort food can look like.
