Pho Nomenal Dumplings: Triangle duo, including UNC alum, wins food truck competition

Posted Sep 30, 2015
The chefs are Sunny Lin, a graduate of NC State, and Sophia Woo, a graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill. Their specialty is cooking dumplings, but their workplace is no ordinary restaurant kitchen — it is the inside of a metal, purple truck: Pho Nomenal Dumpling Truck. Not only have the two chefs taken their food truck throughout the roads of Raleigh, but throughout the highway of Route 66 as well. (The Technician)
