3 Weeks of Food Trucks - The First Rankings

So I have been obsessing about trucks and rather than long winded reviews of each of them here is a listing ranked that will change after I try them again (and again) and add other trucks. How on earth have I eaten at 11 trucks in 3 weeks? Usually I follow and identify which ones I am interested in by using a twitter list feed that I created that now has about 45 different bay area trucks. I will be going to Edgewood Eats this upcoming Monday to try a few more. So stay tuned.

  1. @3sumeats - This is a truck run by a former Top Chef contestant. I had some philly cheesesteak potstickers and possibly the best BLT I have ever eaten (rosemary encrusted bacon). Really, REALLY good stuff.
  2. @Brassknucklesf - Had a sandwich that was pork and ham served with a rosemary waffle (named Notorious P.I.G.). Kitchy names and a really bad ass sandwich.
  3. @eatmobowl - Ate from this truck 2x in 1 day if that says something. Had a 5 spice pulled pork bowl and then a tofu (umami) bowl. Both with fried eggs on top. Simple and perfect!
  4. @BttrScotchOnGo - Ventured over to this truck to pick up desserts for the house. Easily the best butterscotch pudding I have EVER eaten. Also had a butterscotch brownie (more like a blondie) which was great and then a rice krispy treat that was a bit unspectacular. They also have salads and sandwiches but yet to try them.
  5. @TheRibWhip - Ventured up to SF for lunch to try this place out. Unfortunately I caught them on a day where they had no brisket or pulled pork. Still a GREAT burger. They will more than likely slide up the list once I try some actual bbq.
  6. @OaxacanKitchen - Ate me some great tacos that were some of the best taco truck tacos I could imagine (and most know I love me some taco trucks). This truck took the place of a restaurant that they shuttered to focus on catering and the mobile food biz.
  7. @LIBAfalafel - Really good falafel and a crazy condiment bar.
  8. @CurryUpNow - Liked it a lot just nothing spectacular. Easily a recommend but just Indian food wrapped in some naan. The plates look yummy though.
  9. @SFWHISK - So I just had a dessert from them and it was really good strawberry pana cotta. Some yummy looking sandwiches and salads on the menu.
  10. @treatbot - This is an ice cream AND karaoke truck!?!?!?!? The ice cream was good not great they were out of cones so I got a sandwich on a cookie and the cookie was a bit unspectacular.
  11. @MoGoBBQ - got 2 things from them 1 really good and one meh but really yummy short rib sliders.
