Dandelion Pop-up is located in the Greater Omaha Chamber Courtyard’s concession stand at 1300 Howard Street in Omaha, Nebraska, on Fridays from 11:00 a.m. until SOLD OUT! The pop-up consists of local chefs generating some mind-boggling menu items outside of their normal restaurant menu. I have never been disappointed in what our local chefs have brought to the table and think you will love it all too! Season 3 started on 04/20/2018 and will continue through 11/02/2018! You can find the chef line-up at: http://dandelionpopup.com/
Below are my Top 4 Dandelion food moments. Of course, these Top 4 decisions were incredibly hard to make as every lunch was perfect, but if I were to ask for some repeats, these would be my picks!

2. Pork Steam Buns from Chef Jason Hughes: O.M.G. These were the most flavorful little bundles of foodie joy! Warm pork steam buns served with homemade gochujang. Seriously, the most flavorful experience of my life! I loved how tender the pork belly was and how fluffy the little steam buns were. A match made in pork-bun-heaven.


4. Steak and Potatoes from Chef Patrick Michaels: 45-day wagyu prime sprinkled with potato powder. Yes, you read that right! POTATO. POWDER. I thought it sounded very strange, but it was the most Midwest comfort food experience I have ever had. It felt like what you imagine eating science would feel like. I hope this pops-up on the menu at Monarch Prime someday..
The honorable mentions:
– LICKY DRIPS!!! Luckily these guys have pop-ups (mostly at Mula!) around town and were incredibly close to making my Top 4. MOST FUN burger in town! I hope they open their own restaurant someday too!
– Sandwich Proper’s breakfast sandwich galore. I hope these guys pop up somewhere around town again this summer or open up their own shop. I would definitely be there – best breakfast sandwiches maybe ever?!
– BOHO Fried Rice! Can I just make this post a top 8? The chicken fried rice was the best I have ever had, full of flavor and warmed the belly.
– I am not vegan, but the philly from Fauxmaha Hot Dogs was incredible! Yeah seitan love!!
– The Brunch Burger from Donny Rodden of Attitude on Food was soooo fun! I think this would be the most fun Dandelion menu with the bun being waffles adorned with a maple syrup-filled pipette.
– Empanadas from Chef Tony Knotek of Mercury… always a hit and I love that you can get these at their bar!
– And BOTH the L’American and the Cevapi from Chef Dario Schicke who is another incredible chef with mind-blowing flavor explosions (literally, did you see those Nitro Rice Puffs?!)
Biggest regret:
– Missing the Le Pig Mac: I wanted to try this one so bad and am sure it would have made my list!
