Dinner Time With The Wife And Kid #2

So it is Valentines Day and the truth is I have been sick as hell for the last 24 hours.

Finally up and moving about I figured I owed the wife dinner at least.

On Saturday nights at Gazebo Gardens in Fresno,Ca there is a food truck meet up which features Dusty Buns Bistro, Bravo Bites and several other local trucks. One of these is TAKO BBQ.

TAKO is hands down one of my favorite trucks the owners are super nice people and the food is killer.

Daisy is a noodle kid so she had the glassy noodles with spicey spam. Spicey spam is something her and I love. I had the kalbi beef burrito

Kalbi is usually done with a beef short or even pork (I guess you could use chicken). The marinated is made is usually made with say sauce, ginger and garlic. I also add sesame oil to my marinade.

Beth had the kalbi tacos with the fresh kimchi that they make themselves.

We finished up with some dessert from the folks at Summertime Pies. Beth had the blackberry pie, I had the turtle pie and Daisy had the chocolate cream pie. This was a nice way to end dinner.

Tako Tuesday!!

    So today instead of sitting around the house I rolled into Fresno,Ca with the wife and hooked up with the kid over at Fresno City College to check out the newest food truck to hit the scene here in the area. The truck is called Tako Bbq.

    Before I really get into the food of the Tako truck I want to kind of say that the food truck culture is really new to this city. This is not LA or San Francisco, but this is a town that kind of seems to not be the most supportive of a scene that really wants to grow it's legs and run.

   So if you are looking for a decked out truck with cool graphics wtapped around it you are going to miss it. This looks just like any taco truck in Fresno. They have there logo on it but really other then that it is not anything special looking. But do not judge the truck by it apperance.

      So I was not sure what to order so we ordered one of each taco and the kimchee quesadilla. Lindsee ordered the Kogi burger. So I started with the Kimchee quesadilla that had colby jack cheese and the truth is I would never of thought of putting kimchee and cheese together.

   They had 4 kinds of tacos and the truth is they were all really good. next time I will be ordering the Tako dog!!!

    Support local food trucks. Follew them all on twitter and facebook becuase the more the trucks get support from us as consumers then hopefully we will see more trucks hit the pavement. I look forward to the day that we see a food truck meet up in  Fresno!!
