Natural Habitat

Having food trucks on campus or nearby is an excellent move for many universities, and we can only wish that, when the students return to Georgia Tech, Georgia State, Emory, Agnes Scott, Atlanta University, et al., scenes such as these taken at Penn last month by a friend of ours will provide an alternative to dining halls and fast food!

Yesterday’s post about the Yumbii truck included the Twitter address for Hankook Taqueria, whose chef is, indeed responsible for Yumbii’s menu. But the whereabouts of the food truck are best followed through its own Twitter account: http://twitter.com/Yumbii

Carson Young’s bold new food truck, designed with the help of Chris Stalcup (the one with the brown shirt on the right), promises to be “fun, inviting, and digital to the core.”
Chef Tomas Lee of Hankook Taqueria supplies the expertise for the Korean, Mexican & Southern mashup and the fresh gourmet tacos
The “complete digital experience” includes an always-on wireless network wrapped around the truck.

El Burropollo
Posted by Christiane Lauterbach | May 15th, 2010 | Filed under Carts
Seen in front of Pura Vida just south of Ponce: Chef Hector Santiago setting up his new street vending operation. Look for him every Friday and Saturday nights handing out divine chicken burritos, finger-burning tacos, and glasses of horchata while practicing his salsa moves and yakking up an influx of new customers.
Now if we could only get the King of Pops staying across the street at Buddy’s long enough to play along instead of moving on just as the Burropollo gets going, we’d have the makings of a real scene!
