New posting format

I finally entered the 20th century and got myself a “smart” phone!
 
My “not-so-smart” phone was ok, but it wasn’t allowing me to post real time and with good quality pictures.  Well, the old photos were not bad at all.  I’m looking at the Long Beach Fest and for an old phone, the Nom Nom truck came out pretty good. 

Now, I can now post from my new Droid, which will have the photos of the food first, and then a quick comment or description of the venue.  I think that format is better since you’re here to see the food, not read my babble, right??

I really am happy with the quality of the new pictures, and how detailed it is.  I hope you are enjoying it too!

Costa mesa: Ragin Cajun, Morsels, Tropical shave ice

The Bakery Truck tweeted they were going to be at the Fairgrounds, but did not make the connection the Orange County Swap Meet was held there every weekend.   Parking was free but it cost $ 2 to get in.

It was easy to find the trucks and we spotted RAGIN CAJUN, truck  from The Great Food Truck Race. Besides Cajun, Morsels (@BakeryTruck), Tropical Shave Ice and Fresh Fries were there.

Fullerton: Oh for sweet sake, Dan Dan

The Ducks were in Nashville so we stayed home to watch them lose 4-1. After the game, we went to the Bootleggers for dinner, and DanDan BBQ and Oh For Sweet Sake were there.

Yorba Linda: White Rabbit

The White Rabbit posted they were going to be in Yorba Linda/ Placentia today.  After work, I had Karen meet me at the Wells Fargo on Rose Street, and we found the truck waiting, without a line!  We thought for sure there would be people waiting, but earlier there was a mix up on the address, and I wonder if that was the reason there was no line. The original address was still on their web site, and you had to read the latest tweet to find out the new location.

Wow, 15 minutes til opening and no line?

Santa Ana: Piaggio on wheels, Tropical Shave Ice

The REI in Santa Ana (off the 5/ 55 freeways & McFadden) is having a big sale, and also parked there was Piaggio and Tropical Shave Ice.  It was also such a nice day that Anna and I had to stop by for lunch.

Anaheim: (Farmer’s Market) Oh For Sweets Sake

After work I went to get my hair cut, and told Martin to fend for himself.  He went to the Anaheim’s Farmers Market and got sliders from Shortstop BBQ, and stopped at Oh For Sweets Sake.  OFSS was selling homemade chicken soup, and had tweeted me earlier she would save me a bowl.  My appointment was too far, so I told her I would not make it.  Lucky for me, Martin was able to bring home a bowl with a piece of sweet bread.

Costa Mesa: (OC Fairgrounds) Barcelona ontheGo, Morsels Bakery Truck, Piaggio on Wheels

I can’t believe that today is all sunny and gorgeous, compared to yesterday’s dreary and wet day.  I went to the OC Fairgrounds with my coworker Sheila and got food from Barcelona ontheGo, Morsel’s Bakery Truck, and Piaggio on Wheels.

Lentil soup with ham and arugula… perfect for a cool day!

I also had an empenada from Piaggio on Wheels, but it looked the same

Irvine: Lime Truck

It was raining all day today, and most of the Gourmet Food Trucks took the day off.  The Lime Truck and Dos Chinos stepped up and serviced the people for lunch and dinner.  Tonight, they went to the Atomic Ballroom, even though the “OC DinDin a Go-Go” was officially cancelled.  In addition Short Stop BBQ came for dinner.

Martin had dinner at Dos Chinos and Short Stop, while Karen and I had dinner at The Lime Truck.  I really wanted Lime’s Grilled Mac & Cheese sandwich, but when I got to the front, they sold out.  Lucky @Lesliepinoc was one of the lucky ones….

The rain cleared, and the foodies came out hungry!
Thank you Lime Truck, Dos Chinos, and Shortstop BBQ for feeding us
