And hey, that's so great for the environment all you prius owners...another smoke belching stink machine. You guys would eat out of garbage cans if it became trendy. Blast away sheep...I stand by my convictions.

I see it as a smart business move for people who want to enter the industry, have some ideas, but don't necessarily want the hassle of being locked into a single location. They're usually only open about 6 hours a day, they don't have the overhead associated with a brick-and-mortar approach, and they get to do some weird, wild stuff. It's the internet equivalent of the restaurant industry.

And with the word of mouth on these things, they run into ANY problems with the food and they might as well just close up shop. And while I've only tried the one, like Kubrick said, ya gotta try the food.


By the by:
Buttermilk Truck at Amoeba on Sunset on Saturday, 1-4pm. Might be just the thing for a pre-game meal before heading to a game watch at ESPN or something.

Or if there's a Kings practice at TSC on Friday morning and you wanted to give your support, it'll also be right around the corner at 200 Continental Blvd in El Segundo from 9-11am!

my god, some people will bitch about anything....

**** man, i've eaten off the sketchy roach coaches before. ain't no shame in my game.

Man, don't even get me started.

I wonder if we tweeted the Grilled Cheese truck en masse the playoff schedule they'd swing by TSC?

Oh there's a taco lady on 7th that serves off a folding table. Deeeelish. It's right by Tony's Bar. 7th and Industrial.

I've been there. Not bad. I dig the ones on 32nd and Maple a little more as long as the dad is making the al pastor. Otherwise homechick wins.

I don't get the taboo about eating street food here. Other countries live by it. Some of the best food has been on a street somewhere in London, San Jose (Costa Rica) and Michoacan Mexico. And i've been sober.

makes food taste better though.

It's something Anthony Bourdain talked about...people are cynical and snub their nose at it without even trying. If it isn't served in some five start BS place on a silver platter then it's not good enough for them.
