Mama Roots

FINALLY! After almost two years of missing the food truck whenever we came to visit up north, I was able to eat at Mama Roots! And it was worth the wait!! They’ve got a cute little counter in the Miller Hill Mall food court, so it’s easily accessible with parking right outside the mall entrance to the food court around back. I arrived shortly after opening on a Sunday morning, and they were pretty steadily busy the entire time I was eating, which is great to see! And the food did not disappoint! I got the Korean Crunch with the Thai curry soup of the day. Wow - both were flavor bombs! I was a little skeptical about the gluten free bread, but it was great! The sandwich was super savory with the right hits of sweet, tangy, a little spice, and the promised crunch with carrot shreds and fresh spring mix. The soup - first of all piping hot, THANK YOU! And then thick, creamy, full of tender veggies that melt in your mouth. This is not a “hurry curry” - you can feel the love that goes into the food here. This soup simmered until all the flavors melded and got comfy. Sweet peppers, onions, garbanzos, potatoes, etc. in a rich coconut broth with a hint of lime. Lastly I got a coffee smoothie which again was really well-done. Coffee, dates, banana, cocoa… luscious and delicious. I HIGHLY recommend coming here, and can’t wait to try everything on the menu. I’ve heard new things are coming for the summer, too! Excellent, friendly service - this will be a regular stop for me.

Finally a place in the mall that has gluten free and dairy free food! Ordered a Blu Bali Bowl and Tuscan Ricotta Sandwich. Both were very good! Mama Roots now with new menu. Definitely feel good food!
