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.

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.

On Sunday, January 14th, Mai Vang’s, East St Paul’s own Eggroll Queen, nightmare came true. While getting ready to serve for a fund-raiser, her food trailer caught fire. The flames ravaged her trailer & it was destroyed. Mai was devastated.
