From Seattle Weekly
“Chef Jemil has been wowing food truck eaters with his New Orleans southern-styled fare since he rolled onto the food truck scene eight months ago.

Serious Eats Raves About Our Blackened Shrimp Po’ Boy
“Each bite of shrimp provides a pop of freshness, like a breath of fresh air-conditioning after a humid southern afternoon. Pickles push back at the sweetness of the shrimp, while the overly chewy bread makes everything squirt out the bottom of the sandwich. A clean eating sandwich this is not, a masterpiece of shrimp cookery it is.” READ MORE

From Thrillist
“The idea of taking something from New Orleans and bringing it to Seattle is a good one, though normally it requires going through an arduous arena approval process, kissing David Stern’s ring, and pretending to get excited about potentially rooting for dudes named Marco and Greivis.

Customer Praise For Jemil’s

“Many thanks to y’all for the delicious catering for the STP meeting on Friday at UW Medicine. We passed a good time for true. The food was outstanding; I gobbled up most of the left over bread pudding myself. Hope to drop by the truck next time y’all are around SLU- your food helps to ease the pain of not being in NOLA.”

As everyone was leaving they said how wonderful the food was and how much fun they had and I think you have a few more people who will be following you around town to have just a bit again! Now the groom and I are at home munching on some of the leftover hushpuppies. Yummy!”

The food was insanely good! So many of our friends had never had Cajun food before, so it was especially fun to introduce them to it all. We’ll be back for more next year.”
