Baby Dream – IVF Fundraiser

Infertility is a painful, exhausting, emotional and lonely journey. Those of you who know us personally, know that we have been through many hurdles in the last 5 years, with the deepest hope of bringing a child of our own into the world. After trying countless natural herbs and medicines, and alternative child-conceiving rituals, we sought a fertility specialist in 2019. We completed three rounds of medicated cycles, undergoing a Hysterosalpingography, and dilation/curettage procedure for polyps’ removal. Due to COVID-19, we had to stop all treatment.

T1 Underwent Surgery

April 2, 2023.

Our faithful truck #1, the backbone of Eggroll Queen’s operations, underwent a complete makeover after facing catastrophic failures in its transmission, engine, and chassis. It was a challenging moment for us, as the truck had been an integral part of our journey. Thankfully, our friend Jeff Jarzynski came to the rescue, bringing his expertise and generosity to the table. Jeff undertook the painstaking task of transferring the truck’s box from the old chassis to a new one, reconnecting every component with precision and care. Thanks to his dedication, truck #1 was back on the road, ready to serve our business and community once again.

Building of Eggroll Queen Kitchen

February 2023

Building the Eggroll Queen kitchen from the ground up was an incredible journey of determination, hard work, and family unity. From the very beginning, the process involved meticulous planning with the city to ensure all regulations were met. We worked closely with professionals to design a functional floor plan that would bring our vision to life. Once the plans were approved, the real hands-on work began. We got down on our knees to lay floor tiles, installed ceiling tiles, and collaborated with plumbers, electricians, and our landlord to ensure every detail of the kitchen met the highest standards.

Free Kids’ Meal During Covid

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Eggroll Queen emerged as a lifeline for families in need, especially for children who relied on school lunches for their daily meals. With schools closed and many parents out of work, Eggroll Queen took the initiative to serve 50 to 100 free kids’ meals every day. The goal was simple but profound: to ensure that no child in the community went hungry during such uncertain times. This act of generosity provided not just meals but also hope to families struggling to cope with the crisis.

Bite of the Week: Egg rolls at Eggroll Queen Cafe

October 9, 2019 by James Norton
If you step through the portal of one particular hodgepodge coffee shop / art gallery / pizza restaurant on Hamline Avenue in Falcon Heights, you’ll find yourself in the company of egg roll royalty. The takeover of Underground Music Cafe by the Eggroll Queen is tremendously recent, but you can already belly up to the bar and order your vegetarian, pork, chicken, or dessert (!) egg rolls at the outrageously reasonable price of $3 (or three for $8.)

Eggroll Queen Music Cafe Grand Opening

October 5, 2019 – Grand Opening

We are excited to have our grand opening this October 5, 2019. It has been a long journey for Eggroll Queen. It felt like just yesterday when I was still selling egg rolls out of my living room.
After a good three years on the trailer and/or food truck, I’m so happy to have a little cafe to serve my delicious, jumbo egg rolls year round to the community.
Please come and celebrate with me, my family & team at Eggroll Queen Music Cafe (1579 Hamline Ave, Faclon Heights, MN)
