MealsDotKom / Lemongrass Khmer Grill Verified listing

MealsDotKom—a play on co-owner Rasmey Kom's last name—might have started as a meal-prep business in Huntington Beach but is thoroughly Long Beach. Ramsey—a proud Cambodian-American born'n'raised in Long Beach—started the business with his wife, Filipina-American boss Crystal Millar. The success in Huntington allowed them to park up at Partake Collective, the locally owned and operated ghost kitchen at 5th Street and Elm Avenue.

Since then, the success of MealsDotKom has allowed the pair to look toward the future: Unlike many ghost kitchen businesses, they are intent on creating a brick-and-mortar concept—they just need to find the right space. Until then, their bread'n'butter that is meal prep will help build even further capital for their eventual build-out.

For Long Beach Food Scene Week, they are featuring a fan favorite: their stellar lemongrass burger. Layered with papaya salad, cilantro, jalapeño, and cheese, this is one of the best fusion burgers you can have in the city.
