Washington: Sunny Side

Seattle’s first breakfast?only food truck, Sunny Up, has become a beloved mobile café celebrated citywide for its gourmet egg sandwiches inspired by badass women like Frida Kahlo, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Josephine Baker. Their sandwiches are served on soft square telera rolls and include standout options such as the Frida Avokahlo with avocado, Fontina, garlic kale, and Mama Lil’s pepper aioli, or the Josephine Baken featuring pepper bacon, egg, white cheddar, tomato jam, and thyme aioli. Sunnyside also populates menus with creative offerings like the Nina Smoked Salmone (nova lox, egg, dill cream cheese, pickled onion) and Vegan Ruth Tater Ginsburg (hash brown, avocado, kale, pickled peppers) — which consistently earn raves from locals and Seattle Magazine’s Best Food Truck readers’ choice award in 2024. The founders—Ande Janousek and Tara Zumpano—are open about limited availability due to personal circumstances, announcing shorter pop-up schedules via their website and emphasizing community support during Ande’s recovery journey in 2025. Be sure to give these sandwiches a try if you get the opportunity!
