It’s Rainin Food Trucks

It’s WIAW Food Truck edition! Tiffany, Eunice and I were so excited to finally try out the weekly Food Truck Rally at the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood. My sis came along too… neither of us can resist the promise of fried foods (sorry in advance for the horrific pics).

Me, Tiff, and Eunice are HUNGRY!

First the bad part, it was POURING rain when we arrived. But the rain means one thing in Florida… nobody leaves their house. More food for us! OH yeah!

Andrea is confused, no wait… maybe she's not?

One of the first things we got were the Tater Tots from Dim Ssam a go go. They were covered with a siracha infused cheese sauce and chopped up short rib. They were a –freakin-mazing! It was cheesy, spicy, beefy, crispy goodness. I’ve never had tater tots that perfectly cooked. Plus they came with chopsticks. Chopsticks make everything better.

"Napoleon, give me some of your tots."

As we were devouring the tots, Tiffany and Eunice came by with one of the most amazing creations ever… a Red Velvet Cake Milkshake from Sugar Rush. They put real cake INTO the shake! Uh huh, that is right. They said that it was like drinking a slice of red velvet.

I had milkshake envy!

Our next stop was Good Stuff Eatery, which we tried to eat at our last Food Truck fiasco. They had Fried Mac & Cheese Balls with Spicy Guava Sauce. Sounded good to me! I’m sad to say this was very disappointing. The sauce was very good, sweet & spicy. But the balls were bad… it tasted kind of like a fried cornmeal dough with some cheese scattered through. It was weird.

Looks way better than it was.

Our last stop was another goodie, The Frita Man. Fritas are Cuban style burgers. The meat is kicked up a notch with Cuban touches like cumin and garlic, and it’s topped with potato sticks. I got the “Chuck Norris”, which was a mini burger with a fried onion, fresh fried potato sticks and a “zesty” sauce (which I’m pretty sure was just honey mustard). It was really good! I love smashing the Frita and hearing all the potato sticks smash. Then you take a bite and it’s meaty crispy goodness. I would eat there again for sure.

Yes, there is a burger under there!

I LOVE this Food Truck thing! Next time I am definitely going to save room for the Red Velvet Cake Milkshake. What would be your perfect milkshake??

  1. I’ve always wanted to try food from a food truck, especially after watching that show about it on TV! Sriracha cheese sauce sounds amazing. I once had a cupcake milkshake with half the cupcake blended into it and the other half was crumbled in. It was amazing!

  2. I’ve never been to a food truck before! I really want to go to an event like that! My favorite milkshake in the entire world is from a local chain called Nifty Fifites. It’s a Reesey Cup Milkshake! It’s heavenly! :)

  3. Chocolate malted milk shake is my favorite.

    Food trucks are amazing. In my area it is an amusing past time at work to follow the tweets and then groups of people make a mad dash for lunch if any food truck stops by work.

    A grownup run for the ice cream truck :-)
