Mobile Chef Food Truck #1

Well, it was like stumbling upon a mobile food truck touchdown at the taco festival, courtesy of Yelp for the free tickets - a true game-changer! So, the wife and I, ready for some pre-NFL action, ventured over to the first food truck on the scene. It felt like waiting for the kick return during a tense football match before we finally got our hands on those tacos. And boy, was my wife psyched about the cheeseburger taco, a burger in a taco, a play straight out of left field!As my son did his impressive lantern fly shuffle, entertaining the crowd with some gridiron-inspired moves, these bugs seemed as numerous as the players on a football field during a championship game. Trust me, you haven't lived until you've witnessed a lantern fly end-zone dance.Now, back to the taco play. We knew it wouldn't be a cultural touchdown, but it was a solid effort. The taco came dressed in what looked like Big Mac sauce, delivering a tangy blitz at the start and an unexpected twist at the finish. My wife and I gave it a nod of approval, much like a quarterback celebrating a perfectly executed play-action pass.Speaking of Big Macs, America's love affair with them is like a star quarterback's adoration for his lucky socks. My personal playbook might not include Big Mac sauce, but many treat it like an MVP condiment, going so far as to drop major bucks on bottles of the stuff. It's like trading a high draft pick for a game-changing receiver - some people just can't resist.On the rating scale, I'm throwing a 6.1 yard pass out of 10 for this experience. It's not quite a Hail Mary, but it's unique enough to shake up the playbook. Would I run a two-minute drill to get here? Probably not. It's more of a short yardage situation--right in the neighborhood, and if I'm feeling adventurous. A bit pricey? Sure, but that's just part of the halftime show.

Mobile Chef came out to Helltown Brewing in Export over the weekend. The menu was small with only 5 items to choose from. We had the beef and shrimp tacos. The shrimp tacos are not one of my faves, but here they were so darn good.This is the first time I've seen this food truck.

AWSOME afternoon at Kennywood's Pierogi festival. I really enjoyed Mobile Chefs Hawaiian take on Pierogis! I hope they return next year. The dish was spicy but not loaded with too much spice . Flavorful and delicious!

Ordering is a little difficult. We had to order ahead of time.1. Pick the food provider (careful names are similiar)2. See Menu3. Add items to your cart4. Review your cart5. Click Checkout6. Give your name for the order7. Next8. Change pick up location to Schedule for Later9. Choose your date and time 10. Ignore the 15110 zip code11. PayMy Mexican Tacos (serving size 3 soft tacos) had corn, jalopenos, spicy sauce. Rather than steak, I substituted my protein -- crab. To say it was delicious is an understatement. I immediately emailed our coordinator to put them on the future food truck schedule.The 4 v. 5 stars was because of ordering difficulties. My lunch was $12. It was totally appropriate. Can't wait to support this small business in the future.

This food truck was set up at the Bridgeville Fire Department tonight for "Food Truck Thursday," and it was interesting to see so many types of foods from one truck. They had American, Indian, Caribbean, Mexican, Japanese, and Italian. My wife and I ordered the Indian Chicken, and the Mexican Steak Tacos, and we shared them. We both thought that the Indian Chicken was just O.K. (and thought it could use a few more pieces of Mango to help cool it down), and we also both thought the tacos were very good (albeit very messy since they were drizzled in a cheese sauce). I would definitely order those tacos again . . . Cheers!

Mobile Chef came out to our neighborhood. We had the hummus salad and Curry Indian Rice. Salad was fresh and tasty. Chicken was very good as well. Would order again.
