Click through for the tasty details. The food vendors...

Today we felt for Salmon Burger. During the winter, Chef Samir returned to Morocco for a couple of months, which is where he grew up. When he returned, Samir said he would slowly be introducing new menu items to the truck. The first new menu item we've seen since his return is a Wild Pacific Salmon Burger. That doesn't sound...

Ever had Black Sesame Ice Cream? Well, spring is most definitely here, and it's the perfect time to try it out. In the country, things are turning green, and in the city, things are turning green too, with the Itizy Ice Cream truck back on the street. (It's more like turquoise, but let's not quibble.) Spring is the time for...

Ever had a Chicken Mole? Well, we have only been to Antojitos Mexicanos once before, and that was nearly a year ago. Time for a follow-up visit. All we had to do was brush up on our Spanish because last time we were there, neither the proprietors or the customers spoke any English. On our previous visit we enjoyed their...
