Best-selling cookbook author Chrissy Teigen is not the only food expert in the family. Her 1-year-old daughter, Luna, has opened a tiny food truck in her living room, and it’s the cutest thing you’ll see all day.

Guest appearances by Luna are one of the great things about Chrissy Teigen’s Instagram account. In between photos of great food and teasers about her upcoming cookbook, Teigen occasionally posts photos of Luna doing adorable baby things. This week, she posted a photo of Luna serving plastic tacos, burgers, pizza, and smoothies from her new toy food truck, and it is just the cutest thing.

“She is in love with this food truck,” Teigen wrote alongside a video of Luna toddling around the living room, bringing her mother a plastic taco with a big, satisfied smile on her face.

It looks like Luna’s beloved new business is the Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Servin’ Up Fun Food Truck, which sells for $70 on Amazon.

It’s no wonder Luna loves this thing. It has two sides, a bunch of play food, and an “interactive food prep area” including a sink, light-up grill, and a service bell. I’m so jealous. Toy kitchens did not come with light-up grill stations when I was a kid!

Luna’s food truck also has a steering wheel and gear shift, so it’s a toy car as well as a toy restaurant. A kid can “drive” the car, then park it and make tacos. It’s the best of both worlds, which is also one of the big reasons real food trucks are so great.

The set also comes with menu cards and a cash register, so kids can take orders and ring up purchases. And the play food is designed to be assembled by tiny hands. The burger has a bun, patty, bacon, cheese, lettuce, avocado, and more as separate pieces, so kids can assemble whatever their “customers” want. That’s good for kids’ motor development, and also for teaching them new vocabulary and to perform tasks like, “Hold the onions, please.”

The taco even has multiple topping options like beef or lettuce and beans.

According to the Amazon reviews, parents love this toy as much as their kids do. The music and counting games are reportedly not annoying to adults, and it seems to encourage cooperative play.

Luna Legend is the most adorable baby, and she sure seems to get a kick out of her pretend food truck. With a mom like Chrissy Teigen, Luna will probably have a real food truck in her future in no time.
