The Food Truck

Small wedding, quaint, intimate. Selection of vendors included... Those selected necessarily personable. Daughter and Son-in-Law love local craft kitchen offerings of Sea food, Asian food, and New Mexican food. All things considered who else would one choose to cater...? Chef Gabe of course! Care-loving touch all with professionalism and pride of craftsmanship speaks of who Chef is. Chef you and your assistant were amazing. Thank you for your part in making our daughter's day special.

It was a busy night at Tipsy Cactus for The Brit Invasion Fish and Chips night featuring Samuel Smith Brewing. They were unprepared. They had one pot of boiling oil for all the orders they received. I asked a patron if it was good and he gave me a rude look and said, "Of course I am eating it." That should have been my sign from God not to order, but I had a long night of drinking and had nothing since an early breakfast. So I ordered...I figured it would be really good for the 30 minute wait and $15.00, but alas disappointing. Tasteless fish that was either fresh or frozen Pacific cod or frozen poor quality Atlantic cod. The batter was excellent as were the chips and the oil was fresh. I grew up on the north Atlantic coast in the US and lived in England and Ireland. The fish was just awful and that is the entreé so one star. That guy I asked had zero tastebuds. Long Covid? See a doctor, just not me please!Zero ambiance.

The Food Truck was at Tipsy Cactus serving tacos. Only it was a stand inside the bar rather than a truck. No big deal. They had paper ordering sheets and pencils at the table, which seemed smart. The special of the day was carne asada. You can get flour or corn tortillas though this isn't indicated anywhere.I got a carne asada taco and a green Chile brisket taco. Both had a lot of meat but I wish there had been more toppings. The meat was good but there weren't any sauces or salsas available so it just seemed rather plain and a bit clumsy. My friends had gotten tacos before me and all felt the cheese was definitely parmesan and not cotija, and didn't like it, so I asked for no cheese. I would have liked these better with a scoop of pico!The young woman working to take orders was very friendly and helpful!

The food was amazing his max and cheese is off the chain and although a burger sounds simple the best green chile burgers I've had in a long while. He's up at the Tipsy Cactus on Mon and Tue and his food does not disappoint. Catch Chef Gabe at his restaurant The tucked Away Craft Kitchen on Thursday-Sunday you will not be disappointed.

All of the food I've had from this truck is the best!! So flavorful and authentic. Uses real New Mexico green and Red Chile not the fake stuff. Can even get a Frito Pie (hint get the Christmas version). You won't go wrong seeking this truck out. Chef Gabe is an artist!!!!!
