The city of Los Angeles is known for many things. Some of the foremost being terrible traffic, unreal weather, and of course the showbiz industry. People come here from all over the world and get caught up in the glitz and glamour of Hollywood and all of its touristy attractions.
Having traveled out West for my second summer in a row to follow my dreams of working in the film business, I can definitely confirm that all of these things do exist here (the traffic really isn't that bad though). But what sometimes gets lost amongst all of the distractions is the insanely good food selection in the City of Angels. There is more to L.A. than an IN n OUT double-double animal style, fries light well, and a Neapolitan shake, although just writing that makes me want to go get that order right now. Everything out here is trendy and that means you can be in one second and M.I.A. the next day. This requires every chef in SoCal to be on the cutting edge. And there is no more competitive spectrum in L.A. than the food truck industry - high ingredient costs and increasing gas prices ensure that every food truck must deliver its best product to its customers or it will be quickly forgotten.
This mentality was where the idea for this blog came along.Whether I am in Madison, Chicago, or Hollywood I am always on the lookout for the next great spot. And what better way to enjoy my summer than to motivate myself to order something delicious from every food truck in LA. So come follow me each week, as I take you along my culinary journey in the city of Los Angeles. Maybe the food will look so good in my pictures that you will be motivated to come visit me and see for yourself.
