Food Trucks

By Michael • June 10th, 2011

If you think you need to start running to work off all your trips to food truck meet-ups, here’s the perfect way to take action: combine running with truck chasing — and a bit of problem solving — at the The Amazing Gourmet Food Truck Race.

In this episode of Food Truck Friday, we take a bite into some sandwiches that combine tradition with California influences.  Let’s sample some of Bera’s Custom Cheese Steaks.

In this episode of Food Truck Friday, I check in with Grindhaus, the mobile sausage company that is “chopping, grinding, and stuffing” its way through the streets of Los Angeles.  I caught up with Grindhaus at the Century Food Truck lot for a Tuesday lunch.

Me So Hungry? If ever there were a more proper name for a food truck that would have to be it.  I checked them out recently at the Century Blvd truck lot.

This Saturday, Costco Business Center in Hawthorne is hosting six gourmet food trucks for a pop up food court from 11 AM – 5 PM.

In this episode of Food Truck Friday, I sample one of the namesake dishes from Crepes Bonaparte.  At the same time, I complete the task of chasing down five LA food trucks featured on Food Network.

Hungry South Bay citizens hoping to get some “cheesy goodness” are expressing their discontent with the City of Torrance on Facebook.

Recently, the corporate truck chasers of El Segundo were treated to a visit from the Manila Machine on a sunny January day.

The popular mobile eatery The Grilled Cheese Truck made a stop in El Segundo last year, just a few days before Christmas.  Their goal:  spreading Holiday cheer along with their signature “cheesy goodness”.

After months of tracking them, I finally caught up with the food truck known as “The Beast”, the mobile kitchen of Grill ‘Em All, winner of Food Network’s first season of The Great Food Truck Race.

LA isn’t the only town that has food trucks rolling out to feed hungry folks on the go.  Recently, I had the opportunity to check out one of San Francisco’s premiere gourmet trucks, Chairman Bao.

On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to check out Papas Tapas truck at the LAX lunch time lot on Century.

I happened upon the Lake Street Creamery truck a couple weeks ago at the Wednesday Night Alpine Village truck stop (also known as Dinner Under the Stars!).
