Costa mesa: Burnt Truck, Morsels Bakery Truck

(left to right) Fried chicken, Bologna, and Beef Dip sliders
Tater Tots
Original Cream Puff

The Thursday gathering at the OC Fair has been positively received. Having the Farmers Market adjacent also makes it nice for the public, where they can get fresh produce and a fresh gourmet lunch.

The Burnt Truck had bologna sliders as the Chef Special. Pairing it with tater tots made it nostalgic. I also added the Fried Chicken and Beef Dip sliders. To complete my lunch, I had the Cream Puff from Morsels Bakery Truck.

Irvine: Piaggio, Barcelona onthego

Osso Bucco
Duck salad

I never take for granted that every Wednesday that I can find a food truck gathering on Teller.

Today was an extra special treat for two reasons:
1) it was a gorgeous sunny California day and
2) I get to have lunch with my sister

Ok, ok, too sappy. Today Piaggio had Osso Bucco over rice on special, and Barcelona had a Duck pomegranate salad… Perfect for sharing!

Santa Ana: Taco Dawg’s critic dinner

Taco Papa
Reuben Dawg
Samurai
Cuban
The Dirty Dawg
Big City Dawg
Apple Taco

The Taco Dawg invited the media and select fans to their corporate office in Santa Ana to launch their new menu. Many foodies from twitter were there, and it was nice to put a face to a user name. The items they served were the scaled down version but still delicious, and the only item we missed out on was The Hipster.
