Re: Ludo Truck
So there’s this chef called Ludo Lefebvre (wiki) who help plan the menu for this truck. I’ve honestly never heard of him maybe some of you have. But this truck came on the scene a few months ago. I’ve been meaning to try it but never really got a chance to do so until recently.
This truck offers fried chicken (not shown), chicken strips (the middle strips) and this fried chicken ball (the two fried things on the outside). I’m not a big fan of having to pick bones so I ordered chicken strips and the fried chicken ball. The chicken strips didn’t seem to be very spectacular. They honestly tasted like something you’d get from Ralph’s or Chicken Now. The fried chicken ball however was uniquely different. It had this creamy herb sauce in the ball and tasted very good. This truck also offered four different types of dipping sauces. I tried the bernaise and honey bbq.
Unfortunately, neither of the sauces appealed to me. The two chicken orders also came with a cole slaw with a very vinegar type dressing. The cole slaw would have tasted better if it weren’t so vinegar-ish. I think the sourness of the dressing took the taste away from everything else.
On a side note, the cole slaw should have a lid to prevent accidental spills. I didn’t know these cole slaw didn’t have lids so I put them in a bag in such a way that the dressing leaked out onto the passenger side chair. =[
Re: No Tomatoes
I’ve never had Dosa truck or India Jones truck. This truck is also new into the LA food truck scene. I believe they said it was only their first month in operation. They certainly are not listed in the twitter feeds I normally visit. I tried their Chicken Tikka Masala over rice. Aside from not having enough sauce, this tasted very much like a normal dish you’d find at a typical Indian restaurant. The price for the amount though was pretty good -- six dollars for a good amount of rice and curry. After having this, I wonder how the other two Indian cuisine trucks taste like.
Re: Mighty Boba Truck
Boba Milk Tea with Taiwanese style treats like fried popcorn chicken and sweet butter toast. The milk tea is pretty good though the standard mix is a bit sweet for me. Supposedly they are willing to remake the milk tea to make it more or less sweet. Perhaps they should have a number system to determine the sweetness for a better customization.
The popcorn chicken is like Tapioca Express' popcorn chicken. It's really nothing special. I would however like to try the sweet butter toast. These toasts are usually 1-inch thick with sweet butter cream. I think its the same type of cream that is found in some of the Taiwanese bakeries bread (which is very good).
Re: Dumpling Station
Finally I don't remember if I had blogged about Dumpling Station in the past. I may have and probably wasn't too impressed. I wasn't too impressed again after having deep fried kimchi pork and beef dumplings. Maybe I'm just not ordering the correct type of dumpling?
