I’m Featured on Vendr TV!

Pat myself on the back?  Never.  Toot my own horn? Pssh, forget it.

But having a post on the Vendr TV blog .. that’s just too cool.

I’ve always been a fan of Dan Delaney’s journeys through the world of street food, and jumped at the opportunity to help contribute to the $10 A Day challenge.

It also gave me a good reason to finally check out Jersey City’s Louisiana Spice Truck, and revisit my favorite mobile mexican vendor, The Taco Truck.
Many thanks to editor and Stupidly Simple Snack’r Amy Cao for letting me be apart of this cool project.

Anycrap, hope you enjoy the article.  And any new visitors my blog, thanks for clicking.  I promise (especially to my sister, a dedicated reader) more posts soon!

The Taco Truck - Mobile Mexican Comes to Hoboken

On most nights, Pete and I will walk home together after work from the PATH to our apartments in Southwest Hoboken.  On one chilly evening, we caught a glimpse of an orange truck driving towards the riverfront, with “Tacos Straight From the Truck” written in bright white lettering on the side.  Sadly, it drove so fast that I wasn’t able a chance to catch the name.  My Sherlock-esque detective skills kicked into gear. 1) the vehicle appeared to be large, almost truck-like; 2) according to their marquee, they specialized in the Mexican dish known as tacos.  After several nights of grueling deductions (and a minor hint from a Twitter-friend), the identity of the mystery mobile eatery was clear: The Taco Truck.  And believe you me: all the sleuthing paid off in delicious taco-y goodness.
