Mama Chow's Kitchen is part of the Farmhouse Carts pod anchored by Migration Brewing. The menu is streamlined from what appears to have been a longer list. I got the garlic noodles with pan fried pork and shrimp dumplings, which also had perfectly cooked baby bok choy (tasty wok hay). The portions are huge - even after sharing a few wonton and some noodles with my group I have enough noodles left over for a nice snack. My order included a small cup of chili oil, which was perfect for the wontons (and I've dumped the rest on my leftover noodles). I was given a choice of no spice, mild, medium, and spicy with a note that this is American spicy (not Asian spicy). As a Chinese-American raised in the Midwest, the medium (with dips into the chili oil) was perfect!
The folks in the cart were friendly, helpful, and made sure to manage my expectations with not only the spice level, but also the wait. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and had me eating a little beyond my stomach hunger to satisfy my mouth hunger. I'll be back to try out every single one of the other options.
The pod has plenty of seating, though it filled up rapidly as the very temperate Friday early evening wore on. While the pod appears to be dog and stroller/kid friendly, I did notice that there were some pinch points in foot traffic as the pod filled up and could hear some dog-reactive dogs clashing nearby.

First time here, I got the wonton noodle soup and my friend got the wonton garlic noodles. Both were excellent, and my friend's wontons were pan fried which suited the garlic noodles perfectly.
On my second visit I went with garlic noodles with the lollipop wings. Garlic noodles were excellent as I remembered but not a huge fan of the lollipop wings - maybe a bit undercooked because meat was still sticking to the bone. Also not a clean hands experience.
My favorite dish here has to be the garlic noodles with wontons!

Pretty unremarkable garlic noodles, though the tofu was good. I could make something better at home (my companions agreed). Maybe it was an off day, but I wouldn't bother going back.
Food is incredible here and the owners are SO nice. Definitely get the garlic noodles/wings combo!

Hot damn this is good stuff. The garlic noodles are so simple and so delicious. Order them. Worth the long (20 min) wait. And with a pint of beer from next door a sunny day couldn’t be better.
