Are ya hungry yet??

It’ Wednesday.  That means food truck parked down the street from my office at lunchtime.  Last week they didn’t have one, but today, thankfully, one showed up!  I have to say, the food trucks in L.A. continue to impress me.  Me So Hungry (www.mesohungrytruck.com) was offering up sliders and burgers.  Mmmmmmmm beeeeeeef.

I decided to go for the KTM Sliders – marinated short ribs, pepper jack cheese, crispy onions and spicy crème fraiche.  I ordered the combo, which comes with fries, and a soft drink.  The sliders were just the right size (they give you two), and the meat was spiced just right and had a hint of heat thanks to the cheese.  Two of these were more than enough for a lunch meal. 

The fries I opted for were the garlic parmesan fries.  They were very crispy – which my experience with food truck fries this is usually not the case.  It helps that they were thin cut.  While tasty and enjoyable, when I compare to the garlic parmesan fries from The Counter, the fries from The Counter definitely win.  However, they were not a disappointment since I really like crispy fries!

I washed it down with a Pepsi imported from Mexico (real cane sugar!).  It seems that many of the food trucks are carrying these imported colas – you’d think Pepsi and Coke would get a clue!

The young lady who took my order today also gave me a flyer for an event in NoHo on the 24^th – The NoHo Taco Cookoff Festival (www.nohofoodtruckfest.com).  It is being held in the parking lot of the Sears on Victory Blvd.  I hope to check it out!
