NYSF IN LA: BLUE CHEER BURGER FROM THE GRILL ‘EM ALL TRUCK

It was my last working day in LA, and I was bummed out.  The Grill 'Em All truck (who won the Great Food Truck Race last year) was at Universal Gate 2 on Valleyheart, where I had lunch every day this week from a different food truck. Unfortunately, I also had a business lunch that I had to attend on...

NYSF IN LA: GRILLED PORK BANH MI FROM THE MANDOLINE GRILL TRUCK

As NYSF readers know, I really like banh mi and num pang, the Cambodian version of Vietnamese banh mi.  While I get num pang fairly often in New York, I don't get banh mi nearly as much - but L.A. has a bunch of banh mi trucks. Since L.A. can be a bitch to get around, I decided to try...

MOBILE MUNCHIES FOR FRI, JAN 28TH

It wasn't easy for them , but there are a bunch of trucks out today, so make sure you make it worth their while and give them your business. We would like to welcome a new truck to the Mobile Munchies list.  Big D's Grub is serving Asian tacos and grinders (heros) on Park Ave between 30th & 31st.  Check...

NYSF IN LA: THE KOGI BBQ TRUCK

Nearly everyone who follows food trucks has heard of the Kogi BBQ truck.  It was one of the first "gourmet" food trucks in the country, and a visionary in the Korean BBQ taco movement.  They are so successful, there are now 4 Kogi BBQ trucks serving food around the LA/Orange County area, and I believe they have a storefront...

NYSF IN LA: THE STREETS OF THAILAND TRUCK

I went over to the Universal Gate 2 spot on Valleyheart again for lunch, and this time, there were 2 trucks to choose from - Knockout Tacos and Streets Of Thailand.  Since I've already had tacos on this trip from Don Chow Tacos and Lee's Philly, I decided to go for the Streets of Thailand truck.  It is certainly...

NYSF IN LA: A REUBEN FROM THE CANTER’S DELI TRUCK

I definitely wanted to check out the Canter's Deli Truck on this trip, and I saw they were going to be in the parking lot of The Other Door bar in North Hollywood with 3 other trucks.  Unfortunately, my strategy of trying samplers and small items wouldn't work tonight because Canter's specializes in big deli sandwiches - and they...

NYSF IN LA: THE MUNCHIE MACHINE

I went back to the same spot for lunch yesterday (Universal Gate 2, Weddington Park & Valleyheart), and it was occupied by The Munchie Machine.  Anybody who was ever into Scooby Doo will get the references, from the decor to the menu to their laid-back attitude - but it's even more apparent how great a job they did when...

MOBILE MUNCHIES FOR WED, JAN 26TH

Another snowstorm is hitting NY, but some of the trucks are out today.  Since it's going to get worse as the day goes on, please check the Mobile Munchies twitter feed before heading out. We have only included the trucks below that are out. If you don't see someone on the list below, it's because they are not out today. Mexicue...

NYSF IN LA: 10(!) TRUCKS AT THE WEST LA DIN-DIN-A-GO-GO

Mike N Willies
When I got back to my hotel before dinner last night, I was checking out which food trucks would be where for dinner.  I saw that a bunch were together in West LA at something called West LA Din-Din-A-Go-Go. I found out it was held every Monday from 5-9pm at 10601 Washington Blvd in Culver City, right across the street...

NYSF IN LA – THE CLEAN STREET FOOD TRUCK (AND CAKE BAR TOO)

On my first day in L.A. (yesterday) the guys here told me about a spot where a food truck usually parks.  I'm working in Universal City where there aren't a lot of food trucks around, but there was a truck called Clean Street Food at the spot today.   Now that I know the truck, I went to their...
