Free food? Sure! We had a choice of two tacos or a bulgogi cheesesteak sandwich. I opted for the latter and a bottled water.

 |
| Smoked duck w/ creamed corn and fries |
 |
| Pulled pork sliders with creamed corn |

| Tri tip with bleu cheese slaw & chicken with bbq slaw sliders |
There’s one way to get the husband to the mall… Feed him first. Lucky for me there’s a food truck gathering at the SoCo in Costa Mesa. Today Chompchomp, Calbi, Barcelona, Morsels, & Shortstop bbq were there.
It was a sunny day, but just enough chill to order a lentil & ham soup from Barcelona.
I also got the limited Duck plate (sans sauce) plus 2 sides from Shortstop, leaving me too full to grab anything else… Well except a fresh baked cookie from Morsels.
Martin got his usual sliders from Shortstop: tri-tip, chicken & pork.

Nov 26: Food trucks in Santa Ana + Costa Mesa on Black Friday!
Los Alamitos: Eat Phamish, Morsels Bakery Truck
 |
| Vietnamese noodle soup (pho ga) |
 |
| Morsel’s cream puff (one of my favorites) |
 |
| Banana cream dessert shot |
 |
| Fresh chocolate chip cookie It was scalding hot! |
Tonight the Los Al Din Din had a great line up with Lomo, Lime Truck, Vizzi Truck, and guest trucks: Takoyakitanota (the Octopus truck), Shrimp Guys, and Eat Phamish.
When we arrived not all the trucks were there. It was cold and rain was heading our way, a hot bowl of vietnamese noodle soup (pho) was ideal. The bowl was pretty large (surprisingly) I didn’t have room to eat other items from other trucks. Well, I did leave room for my cream puff, and Karen had room for a dessert shot & a hot, fresh chocolate chip cookie, also from Morsels.
