| - This was my first food truck event ever. I never really caught on to the whole food truck faze. But ever since I joined the Yelp community, I'm all for food events.
$10 each admission fee. I went on a Sunday afternoon around 2pm and stayed till 7pm. It was FREAKIN HOT that day. There were hardly any shade so that made it worse. The only shaded areas were tables and chairs for sit down and eat and that was PACKED with people. We were practically sitting on top of strangers that day just to quickly eat our food and/or escape the heat for a brief moment.
To be honest, the food trucks weren't all that. It wasn't the price that I had an issue with. The food was just not memorable. Sadly, I kind of forgot what foods I had from which food truck..
I remember eating some spicy tuna nachos, which were gross by the way because they paired it with DORITO CHIPS! Um what!?!? In case they haven't tasted Doritos in awhile, these chips are already packed with cheesy flavorings. Why are you going to pair that up with spicy tuna!? The cheesiness of the chips just completely overpowered the combo, I couldn't even taste the spicy tuna that much!
I also had shrimp jambalaya from Slap Yo Mama! (I remember the name because it was catchy) It was $9 and it didn't even taste good. I was so disapointed because that was my first dish of the day. It was bland and tasteless...not to mention watery.
My boyfriend had this sandwich from this BBQ truck and his sandwich consisted of bbq pork and mac n cheese. Him being a big fan of mac n cheese really enjoyed his sandwich. Well I'm glad someone enjoyed something from this event.
Other foods my boyfriend and I shared were:
-fried raviolis (those were pretty good)
-some shrimp balls from Wha the Pho? (i think that's what they're called and I think it's shrimp balls is what I ate.) Those were alright too...nothing great. I didn't like the shirmp paste feeling in my mouth plus the texture was kinda ehh.... =/ I wouldn't get that again.
Look how bad of a memory I got! Omgoodness...I'm sorry. The damn heat probably fuc*ed me up that afternoon. =( I love the sun but damn...couldn't they have made this event earlier in the month!? Or late march!?!
Having said earlier that we were here till 7pm.....as we were leaving, we saw a long line by the entrance. People thought it was a good idea to come when the sun starts to set. WRONG!!!!! DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT bother coming after 7pm...heck, or even 5pm. There were already at least 3 trucks that have closed shop because they ran out of food. I didn't get to try Fluff Ice because they were already closed when I got there at 2pm!!!!!! =( Bummer.
Would I go again next year? Eh...maybe if there was an admission discount (or even free admission) and depending on the weather cuz I'm not about to get owned by the blazing heat again. Otherwise, this event was overrated in my opinion. If I wanted to pig out on foods and prices like these, I'd rather take a trip back to my hometown for the Orange County Fair or the LA County Fair.
