Food Truck 692

If you’re in need of a tasty fix for lunch, The Food Truck 692 in Delap is a great choice. A small team of ladies turn out fabulous food Monday to Saturday from 10:30am to 6pm. Check out the menu to find your lunchtime taste treat. Note: In mid-2026 they added a second truck (check out the burrito bowl, my favorite). 

The Food Truck 692 Dolly Parton Tribute Menu, featuring 'Coat of Many Colors' summer rolls and '9 to 5' salad

The Story Behind the Menu

The culinary curator of The Food Truck 692 has created a few new dishes in tribute to Lani Kramer's favorite country music star, Dolly Parton — including a salad named for a movie night tradition. "Whenever my mom visits me, we watch 'Coal Miner's Daughter' … that movie always makes us cry. So right after, we have to watch '9 to 5,' because we will laugh so hard!"

"I named the salad '9 to 5' because it only has three ingredients and the movie has three main stars: Dolly, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin."

Lani wrote on Monday: "I LOVE DOLLY! I grew up listening to Dolly and Kenny Rogers. 'Islands in the Stream' was a very popular song here during my teenage years. My tough breakdancing friends (boys) would lip sync to it when we would hang out. I even have it on video so they can't deny that, lol."

The song "Coat of Many Colors" has also made it onto the Food Truck's Dolly Parton Tribute Menu: "It's one of my favorite songs as I can relate, as I was also bullied in middle school in both Majuro and Wisconsin. The reason I named the rolls after that song is because when you open the bowl, there are so many beautiful colors."

These are all summer rolls, Lani wrote: "They are mostly vegetables with either chicken or fish. I decided not to add noodles as I noticed a few of my customers are watching their carb intake. It's like a salad in a roll."

Reflecting on Dolly's life, Lani said: "She grew up poor with a lot of faith in God, which kept her humble in her life. She never forgot her roots, which is why she was so generous and kind."

A couple of years ago, Lani attended a big family reunion in East Tennessee, Dolly's birthplace. "The people there are so nice, genuine, and kind. Now I understand that phrase 'southern hospitality' … it came from Tennessee!"
