Keep On Truckin'

 

Go figure.

Gourmet food trucks have been a thing for about 15 years, but I only recently frequented one.   

Not only did I live to tell the story, but I wanted to keep it continuing.   CHX Sandwiches offers some of the best food I ever had.

Somehow I got connected to this food truck run by a 20-year-old kid who trained at the Michelin-rated restaurant Kali in Hollywood.    Specializing in fried chicken dishes, the truck listed on the menu a Korean fried chicken sando which called to me.   After all, one of the best meals I have had this year was a Korean on in, of all places, Glendale, Arizona.   When I saw that CHX delivered, I ordered one.

OMG!   This was the most phenomenal sandwich I have had in years.   For sides, I included a spicy cucumber salad and some Korean cole slaw.

OMG!

I frantically did a Google search to get on this truck's schedule of appearances. Luckily, one of this kid's regular stops is ten minutes away.   Two days ago, I craved it all over again.  They were out of the sides so I settled for some French fries.

OMG!!!

Crispy and salted to perfection.   Fast food fries are never this good.

Again, I have yet to go to the truck myself, but I plan to do because I want to meet this boy wonder of the kitchen.   From my looks on his social media, I am not alone as a fan.   I see such followers as Helen Hunt and Peri Gilpin.

And me!   So far, I'm batting 1.000 when it comes to food trucks.

Dinner last night:  Sandwich.
