The first item added to my reverse to do list is eating at food trucks. Our temple organized a food truck event and had about 6 different food trucks there. Half dinner trucks, half dessert trucks. I focused on dinner. Food trucks excite me because they tend to do very interesting and fun things with food. At least, these are the food trucks I try to seek out.
Food Truck One: The Waffle Bus
This was a great food truck for the kids. The waffles and chicken were well received and the fries are always a hit. Our oldest son got wild and ordered a waffle burger. I had to try a taste. It was the delightful combination it sounds like, waffle goodness with a cheeseburger stuffed inside. I also sampled the Ancho Chile Honey, mildly spicy and sweet. We'll be back Waffle Bus
Food Truck Two - Oh My Gogi!
Lessons learned from this food truck:
- Gogi - means meat in Korean
- Be ready to try many things. This food truck did not have what we wanted to order, so we tried something else. Hopefully this was an exeception and not the norm.
- Have a back up option for your significant other. Even if you've waited in line a long time for the thing your significant other really wanted, be ready to order something else.
Other than the slight disappoint in not getting to try what we wanted from the menu, we were still able to get our fill of gogi and kimchee. So that was a win. The gogi was quite flavorful. I'm enjoying kimchee more and more. It was obvious this was a popular truck because the line was long. They were playing Despicable Me while I waited. I appreciated that they took into consideration their waiting patrons and kept them entertained.
Food Truck Three - Bernie's Burger Bus
No pictures for this food truck, but it was pretty awesome. I could not pause while eating my burger to justify taking a picture. I had a burger called the Firedrill which I can't seem to find on their website menu. It was spicy, with avocado, cheese, just some downright greasy goodness.
Then I saw this, "Bernie is paleo friendly!" I wish I had informed myself about this before going because I like to be aware of my paleo options.
Bernie's Burger Bus, I will hunt you down again.

My hope is to grow this food truck list. Food trucks entice my adventurous eating habit. I'm impressed with the combinations that can be created in a food truck. I'd love to attend the Houston Food Truck Festival, but I would definitely need a plan in place both for my belly and for waiting in line with children.
There will be more food truck experiences to be had, they are so fun!
