| - Disclaimer: I'm rating this establishment as a food truck. Of course it can't compare to certain establishments that offer a dine-in experience, but the food is excellent for the price (You can get a very satisfying meal for less than 10 bucks), so I'm rating it as such. Things such as schedules become really important to me so that I can adequately track down the truck and plan to go if I'm in the area on a particular day.
Review:
Sausagefest. It's the 1:30AM phenomena that happens to a good majority of clubs on the Strip. As a straight male, it's when all the eye candy leaves the club, and all that's left in the club are a bunch of drunk dudes that push and shove as they try to find out where all the girls are.
While not a fan of the name of the truck, it's definitely a place that has great sausages. Oliver says that all his sausages are made by a German shop in LA and has them shipped over. (He's right, I haven't really found any exceptional fresh made sausages from the local meat shops here.)
But wait, it's not just the sausages, it's the extra toppings that make them even more amazing.
Example: The Bollywood: Take a nice fresh chewy bun, put a sausage in it, top with ground beef curry and raita. Yeah, it looks like it could kill you, but it gives your tastebuds life. I assure you that even though it looks like a chilidog gone wrong, it tastes much better than a chilidog.
Other sandwiches I've tried are the Bahn Min (really good, one of their signature dishes), and the Italian job (also good.)
Fries are pretty good too. They're the skin-on type fries.
Does the food keep well if it's take-out? It does reasonably well for trips less than 10 minutes (actually tested). Fries, not so good (but they're pretty hard to keep in prime condition, no matter who's serving them). They come in Styrofoam boxes if you order it to go.
My only real gripe about this truck is that scheduling is a bit haphazard. You basically find out about where it's going to be probably 2-3 hours before they're there (if you're lucky you get overnight notice). Not ideal for planning. (-1 star here. If they correct, they can earn it back!!!)
