Los Alamitos: Papas Tapas

garlic shrimp
paella

After a long day at Gourmet on the Go, I wanted to have something different than what was offered at lunch. Fortunately for me, Papas Tapas was a new truck that I have never tried before.

The menu was vast, but I decided on the garlic shrimp and the paella from this Spanish truck.

After months of planning, my Gourmet On The Go event finally became a reality!

Piaggio on Wheels, Crepes Bonaparte, Dos Chinos, Tropical Shave Ice and Oh For Sweets Sake came to serve the people, and OC PARKS made it all possible by helping me with the local permits and venue.

Piaggio had his Milanesa Caballo and Egg over fries, and the Asparagus quesadilla as his main specials, and Dos Chinos wowed the crowd with the carne over garlic fries.

Oh for Sweets Sake sold out within an hour (didn’t even get a photo!), and Crepes had a line a mile long. Even Tropical Shave Ice ran out of cups and spoons at the end of the event.

Three people tried out for the Nutella eating contest, and it took about 15 minutes for the winner to finish the 20 oz jar.  Great event… Thank you to the foodies and GFTS!
