A few weeks ago, I got an invitation on facebook to a Gourmet Food Truck Festival. I thought that sounded like just about the coolest thing ever, so we put it on the calendar and today we went.
There are 8 food trucks there. A Vietnamese truck called NomNom, a shave ice truck called A Rockin’ Ice, a Filipino/Hawaiian fusion truck called Truck Norris, a cajun-ish truck called Slap Yo Mama, a meatball truck called Great Balls on Tires, Dim Sum Truck, Frysmith (gourmet fries), and CoolHaus, a gourmet ice cream truck.
We visited Slap Yo Mama, Truck Norris, and CoolHaus.
Since they make the food right there, you do have to wait a bit, but it’s not long… at least if you’re not a very hungry, very hot 5-year-old.
There were some who got there before us and were taking advantage of the shaved ice truck… and sharing.
Finally, our food was ready!
It was all very delicious!
I suppose we should have let the kids play on the new playground to work off some energy and make room for ice cream.
The line for CoolHaus was pretty long, but we HAD to try some of their ice cream.
Their menu:
Just in case you can’t read that very well:
Cookie flavors – oatmeal cookie, Potato chip & Skor bar cookie, chocolate cookie, red velvet cookie, chocolate chip cookie
Ice Cream/Gelato/Sorbet flavors- balsamic fig & mascarpone ice cream, Mexican chocolate chipotle ice cream, blackberry ginger sorbet, acai blueberry gelato, green tea ice cream, peanut butter ice cream, and olive oil gelato
The kids decided the ice cream sounded gross, so they just got cookies.
Wayne was adventurous and got the balsamic fig & mascarpone with oatmeal cookies.
I stuck with 2 flavors I love. Peanut butter and chocolate.
All in all, it was very successful, and very delicious!
It’s still happening until 6pm, so if you’re in Sierra Madre and are hungry, stop by the Food Truck Festival at Memorial Park!!
