YES, yes, i know - another really late post..... i know. here i am, talking about last May's Eat The Street, and June's Eat The Street is right around the corner.... i know. i suck :( please forgive. i say - hey, better late than never! here are drool-worthy pics from May's Eat The Street. try not to eat your computer. check out this crowd! people and food trucks as far as the eye can see!!! it rained, but that did NOT stop anyone! SOUL PATROL = our first stop was this soul food truck. you may have heard of them? they first started out as a truck, but now have a restaurant near the University of Hawaii. i've always wanted to try their food, so why not now? what you're looking at is a delicious container of collard greens. it was smoky, hammy, and so-so-so good! SOUL PATROL = the "mixed plate" from their truck. it contains fried chicken, cole slaw, fried pork (i think, sorry i can't remember), baked black beans and cornbread with honey. if i could marry food - i would have proposed right then and there. SOUL PATROL = you know what that is? THAT is the best shrimp and grits i've ever had. ever. EVER. and i've had some shrimp and grits..... trust me - if this is your first experience with shrimp and grits, then no other will compare ever again. EAT THIS - EAT THIS NOW..... its a little pricey, but trust me, it is 100% worth it. PIZZA = yeah, ok, so we did not get pizza b/c #1 the line was hella long, #2 they were still cooking the pizzas and #3 i didn't really feel like pizza :( however, i was impressed that this company actually TRAVELS around with a brick oven! amazing. maybe i'll try next time we go. i guess we'd have to go early...... excuse me - does that say MALASADA BURGERS?! i must try this........ we're stopping....... so THIS is the malasada burger. no, it does not look appetizing..... and some of you might be saying "malasada burger? ew!" but hey, don't knock it till you try it...... perhaps another angle will make it look more appetizing? so is this workin for you yet? and what did it taste like? well, eat a burger, and then eat a malasada with that burger.... TA-DA. its like you were there. :P Unfortunately - i don't think i'll be getting this again. BUT i do encourage you to try it. it wasn't bad, just un-impressive. Mexican sodas really are the best sodas..... this is Tamarind flavored! if you don't like tamarind, you will not like this beverage. but if you DO like tamarind... you will love, love, love this soda :D so delicious. check out the taco trucks at the event, and you will find this soda..... and finally.... the "waffle dog." if you were thinking KC Waffle dog - you are wrong. this is nothing like that.
the KC Waffle dog was like riding a unicorn, while this waffle dog was more like riding a donkey. this waffle dog was bland. the KC waffle dog was so much better. man, i miss KC drive inn!!!!! the next Eat The Street event will take place on Friday, June 24th. make sure you mark your calenders, and come hungry!!! check out my "Other Great Sites" tab at the top of this page, and click on "Street Grindz" for more info!
