New York Street Food

Things were pretty busy last week in San Francisco, and I didn’t have a chance to write about everything I ran across in the street food scene.

I was working right by the Bay Bridge and had a really nice view from my office (above), but it was quite a bit of a walk to get to any food trucks or carts for the most part.

When I asked people for street food suggestions in SF before I left, several people said I had to try the Crème Brûlée Cart.  They have a cart during the day on Market St by Sutter, and a truck at night on Market St by Castro.

I also tried freshly filled cream puffs from Pacific Puffs, who were at Truck Stop SF earlier this week.

For my last food truck lunch in SF, I went to Hapa SF, whose motto is “sustainable local filipino cuisine”.  The menu was interesting, with their unique takes on spring rolls, tacos, banh mi, and more traditional rice plates.

I decided to get a chicken banh mi burrito, which cost $8, but I made it into a combo for $3 more with a small order of lumpia.

I ran across Vesta Flatbread at Truck Stop SF, and I’m glad I gave them a try.  If you care about locally sourced, high-quality food, this is the place for you – and they bake their own flatbread right on the truck!  You can see the round oven right inside the truck.

I decided to get the roast pork flatbread sandwich, which cost $9. They also had grilled chicken, carrot pate, and pork ‘n’ egg sandwiches.

This might look like just another large gyro or shawarma sandwich, but it was light years beyond.

Nun Chuk Chicken taco

Earlier this week at the Truck Stop in SF, I tried a couple of tacos from Kung Fu Tacos and my colleague got a tikka masala burrito from Curry Up Now.  Looks pretty good, eh?
