Every Thursday you can find Calbi BBQ, Oh For Sweet’s Sakes and, of course Crepes Bonaparte at the Anaheim’s Farmer’s Market at the Anaheim Promenade.

Last night when we had our Shave Ice, we told Rick we would see him tomorrow (at the K1 Irvine). Well, I kept my word (Martin forgot he had back to school night). Karen met me down in Irvine and we shared a few items from Barcelona onthego and Lomo Arigato.
 |
| Barcelona on the Go The last time I had them was at the Anaheim Farmer’s Market, so it’s been a while! |
 |
| Paella Croquettes: The paella rice rolled into a ball, lightly covered in cornmeal and deep fried – Delish! |
 |
| Dates wrapped in bacon. It was so good, I ordered another one! |
 |
| Jamon & melon over baby greens |
Lomo Arigato was also there, but they didn’t open their truck untill 6:15 (the event started at 5:30). That’s not good when you have hungry people waiting!!!
 |
| Lomo Arigato: Good food but you need to open on time, man! |
 |
| This order was only $7.00! Enough for 2 or more. Missing garlic or something like that. They provide a white sauce to add kick, but I didn’t add it. |
Our evening was not complete without a visit to Rick’s truck: Tropical Shave Ice.
 |
| My usual: The vanilla with red bean topped with the condense milk. I’m sure you’re getting tired of this shave ice, eh? I tend to stick to a tried and true flavor. |

Today was the first time in weeks its been in the 70’s… but not too cold to have shaved ice!
I went to Tropical Shave Ice after my hair appointment. Rather than post a picture of the same shaved ice as before (I sort of order the same one… vanilla… sweet red bean… condensed milk.. yawn, I know) here is a picture of me, with the shave ice, and the truck!

The Crepes Bonaparte truck will be stopping near my work on the 1st Tuesday of each month. A lot of the people from work took the day after Labor Day off, so there were not many people today. The last time they came it was scalding hot outside, so many people stayed in. Geesh! I hope more people will start coming to the 900 Broadway location… I’d hate for them to stop coming due to a lack of business 😦

We went to the LA County Fair at the Pomona Fairgrounds today. Admission was only a dollar if you arrived before 1 pm during the Labor Day weekend. We also decided to have lunch at CalbiBBQ truck instead of the usual fried Fair food.
 |
| Wow, a dollar for the LA County Fair! |
 |

We left the Fair around 1:30 because it was getting too crowded and hot. The Lime Truck tweeted they were at the Bruery off Orangethorpe and the 57 freeway, and they were serving up fried chicken, mac n cheese, and smoked salmon. When we arrived, they only had smoked salmon and so I got that for Martin.

I told my husband that i was stuffed from my Dos Chinos lunch, so he suggested dinner at Piaggio on Wheels. (I hope you see the irony in that sentence)
They were parked at the Bootlegger’s Brewery in Fullerton, so really, how could I say no? I met my husband at the Brewey and found him inhaling his meal. I wish I took a picture of my husband’s steak… it was a steak picanha (Brazilian choice steak cut with peppercorn cream sauce).. It was so heavenly and he devoured it before I could say “hey, blog it!”
Since I was not hungry enough for steak, here is what I had… my very light meal:
 |
| Fresh coconut to drink. You pick it, Coli will open it! |
 |
| My light dinner: Caprese empenada (light flaky shell filled with mozzarella, basil and tomatos) |
 |
| Churros with caramel (dulce de leche) for dessert |
 |
| The Garden Grove taco: BBQ Rib, korean style The taco was missing some… kick.  Vietnamese Pork bellies over rice and fries. |
The Lime Truck made a special appearance at the Farmer’s Market. The first two times I had LT, I had the ceviche which was so delish! I was not impressed with the two grilled items, which made me sad. I guess I need to stick with the fresh items, or seafood items. I heard the fried chicken is delish, so that’s a must try for me.
 |
| Pulled pork with smoked gouda cheese panini A little dry, and a bread was a bit greasy. |
 |
| Tofu & Kimchi taco (yes its tofu, not potatoes) Not impressed |
I went to the Farmer’s Market to get food from the Lime Truck, but my friend wanted me to pick up a Le Classique: Banana, Strawberry, Nutella with Whipped Creme crepe for him. I did not take a picture of his crepe as it was hot out, and it was melting!!

| Find the Crepes Bonaparte truck at the Anaheim Farmers Market every Thursday! |
On September 1, 2010, six trucks were at the K1 Racing Speedway for dinner, and nicknamed the event “Din Din A Go Go”.
Piaggio on Wheels, Dos Chinos, Crepes Bonaparte, Tropical Shave Ice, White Rabbit, and LomoArigato were there. (Are the names sounding familar now?) The event was from 5:30-9 pm, and Kogi BBQ pulled up at the end of the parking lot, drawing just a little attention.
It was on this day that I decided to blog about my truck findings, so I only took one picture… the rare OC appearance by White Rabbit, a Filipino-fusion truck and LomoArigato’s menu.
