I went to the food truck at the farmer's market and had a delicious breakfast! I got the egg and cheese arepa, which also had tomatoes and onions and a great little sauce. The ambiance was nice but since it's a food truck, there's not much to say about it. The service was good, it took a little while but understandable for a food truck!

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways...1. Friendly, friendly people. It's not just, "what can I get you?" It's the "how are you", and the smiles. 2. Clean, clean, clean. You look inside the truck & all is very organized and tidy. This is important to me, it shows pride in their work.3. The arepas, my gosh, the arepas! Excellent, crispy outside, not bulging masa ball, inside, soft & not dry & crumbly.4. The chicken, that is nestled inside the arepas, shredded evenly, tasty, moist enough to balance the arepa, but not too juicy that the arepa gets soaked & torn apart. It is not overly seasoned, which is fine because of the mixed cheese that is loaded on top, ooey, gooey goodness!5. The sauce, the pièce de résistance, this cilantro & garlic sauce is amazing. It adds a level of flavor to the whole dish that is incomparable. Believe me, my husband and I, out of desperation, when they were on vacation, have tried another place & let's just say, not good. They also have a spicy version of the sauce that is not just handed out all willy nilly, you have to ask & yes, it is possible, makes it all more delectable.Do yourself a favor, follow & taste the food!

I love these guys. Wayne and Maria are awesome. I've been frequenting this food truck for over 4-5 years at the Winter Park Farmers market on Saturdays and will continue. My favorite is the shredded chicken and mixed cheese Venezuelan arepas, with the tequeños. The lines get long with people ordering there brunch specials but I always stick to the wonderful arepas & make sure to request the spicy garlic cilantro sauce.

OH-MY-GOD! The Fried Breakfast sandwich was one of the best breakfast sandwich I have ever tasted. I can't wait to go back. Full of flavor and the egg was over-easy, just like I love it. Fairly priced, didn't even pay $10 for it and it was very fulling. Juan had "arepa" with pulled pork and he enjoyed it.

Just had the breakfast sandwich on Ciabatta roll. Very good! Everything was fresh and delicious. Would definitely try other items. Food is Venezuelan and general Latin flare -- Arepas, Quesadillas and such

Holy arepa tastiness. I was quite pleased. I approached the window because I was enticed by the aromas of happiness. I inquired what exactly ropa vieja was and was informed that it is a certain way of cooking beef. Satisfied with that answer, I ordered it in an arepa with cheese. I've had an arepa before, but this was glorious. The arepa tasted considerably better than the one I had before, and the beef was phenomenal. Good work Tastebuds!

Nice marketing idea. Have a food truck will cater party. This truck was listed on several Food Truck Bazaars but finally showed up to Fashion Square. Maybe I missed their other grand appearances. The food on this occasion was Latin American flare including quesadillas, ropa vieja con tostones, empanadas, and a farmer's market sandwich. Small manageable menu with items to munch on and still have room to sample another food truck. Their food truck menu points out that they use fresh ingredients from the Winter Park farmers market. I tried the ropa vieja con tostones, which were perfect little bite size plantains, topped with succulent meat and cheese. The plantain had a nice firmness without being hard, perfect and the meat was full of flavors. I also had the empanadas, which were flaky and full of nicely flavored pork, with this rocking cilantro mayo dipping sauce. All items were fresh and flavorful and the truck was spiffy clean. Come out and play more often.

This is one of the better trucks in a sea of subpar food trucks for one good reason: the food didn't make me feel queasy. Yay!I had the Chicken Empanada. $2.50 for one, or $5 for two (obviously). The owner of the truck really tried to sell me on this, but I didn't need two. The empanada was merely a precursor to stuffing my face with more truck food. An appetizer. Duh.It was a really good empanda filled with tender chicken, potatoes and peppers. I could tell it was made fresh and with love. Unlike other truck food (cough cough, Melissa's Chicken and Waffles) it wasn't disgustingly greasy and oily. My friend had the Shrimp Quesadilla. It sounded gross in theory, but there were actually plenty of shrimp on this bad boy. They weren't too fishy and it didn't make my car smell like a wharf on a hot Summer's day.It's hard to bypass this truck with the heavenly smells wafting out of it, but people managed to do so in favor of grosser food trucks. For shame, people. For shame.

Since the first Food Truck Bazaar I attended several years ago Tastebuds has been my favorite truck. Why? Because of the tostones! Seriously, they are food truck perfection. Piled high with shredded beef, a yummy sauce, cilantro, and cheese, these things are the bomb. My whole family loves these tasty little snacks so much that when the kids are all with me we have to order two orders of them. So, can you guess what dish I would recommend you order? As far as food truck logistics go, they aren't bad. There is usually about a five minute wait for food and they call your name to pick up your order from the back of the truck when it is ready.

Tastebuds still is as awesome as ever. I regretfully hadn't been by very often over the past few months, so I took a long overdue trip to the truck while it was at the Winter Park Farmers Market yesterday. I ordered the "special," which consisted of free-range fried egg, tomatoes, bacon and pesto aioli on ciabatta bread. It was excellent.I highly recommend this food truck to everyone. If possible, try the truck's green sauce, which is available in its original flavor as well as in a spicy one. The spicy one is delicious. The truck usually sells it in containers, so if you like it then you should be able to buy some to take home. It didn't have any or ran out of for-sale containers yesterday, but I'm hoping to buy some next weekend.Really friendly people and excellent food. Still, and probably always will be, five stars.
