I ate at this food truck for the first time because my church had a mini food truck lunch rally. I…read moreordered the Chicken Shewarma, which is like a pita or gyro. It was very tasty and a good amount of food. The only thing I would change about my experience would be for the fries to be advertised as a side so that we'd know how much they cost, since the price wasn't listed on the menu. When I grabbed some ketchup packets for my fries, the packets had dirt on them which was a bit weird. Maybe I got the bottom of the batch or something. But over all the quality of the food was great, very tasty, and I'd order it again! The pita was very warm and soft.

Up until recently, I've actually had a huge aversion to food trucks, but that has certainly…read morechanged. It may have been the fact that at my first job out of high school, folks called the truck that swung by the "roach coach." Conversely, it may be my binge watching of food network and their Food Truck Rally that has changed my mind. Either way, I'm very pleased with the fact that I've begun exploring these great little mobile sources of food pleasure. This food truck swung by work recently, and I have to admit I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to Middle East cuisine. The young woman taking the order was very patient and explained all the different plates, the variations available, and what came on each. Her top recommendation came for the beef shawarma and I told her I'd take it. One thing that folks have to realize is that these are mobile kitchens with very limited space. In today's age of fast food that seems to be sitting under a food warmer and being prepared long before you order, there is an unrealistic expectation that a food truck will spit your order out in a minute or two. I played on my phone for a while and was delighted when my name was called. The meat was perfectly seasoned and there was no skimping on the portions. The liberal amount of sauce on top added to the tastiness (and most definitely the messiness) of this dish. I'm hoping this food truck comes back soon. Not only for a chance to try some other of their tasty dishes, but also because of the friendliness of the woman at the window, and for how (relatively) quickly my food was served.

In part because Konan's isn't too far from the Tampa airport (around a 10 minute drive), I've often made it my first stop when coming to town. Konan's is a black-owned BBQ restaurant located in a residential neighborhood that's not too far from Raymond James Stadium where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers play. Speaking of football, the family that owns and runs the restaurant has produced a few D-I basketball and football players, including a current player who's projected to be a high-round NFL draft pick in the next draft. The last time I was here was a Friday, a little before noon. It hadn't gotten too busy yet so wasn't much of a wait in line. Ordered my favorite meal there, which is the 2-meat (ribs and pulled pork) combo ($17). The combo comes with two sides - I usually get the flavored rice (Rice 'a la Trigg) and the mac and cheese. The meal also includes a slice of bread. Lemonade is $3 extra, bottled water $2. As always, the ribs and pulled pork were excellent. I especially love the yellow sauce (I think a mustard sauce) they use to flavor their meats and rice side dish, which is a unique staple of this restaurant. The mac and cheese is always very tasty as well. Their food is also always well-portioned - I always leave very full! Altogether my meal came out to around $21, which was a very fair price for two meats, two sides, and a lemonade. Konan's does give a small discount if you pay with cash rather than credit. It seems most customers come here for take-out, though there's plenty of seating both inside and outside the restaurant. The staff is always very friendly, though I'm not too big on the fact that they're big Tampa Bay Buccaneer fans (LOL). If you've never been would definitely check it out! Extremely solid southern-style BBQ restaurant - this might be my favorite restaurant in Tampa!

First off, the crunch is so loud it could qualify as a sound effect in an action movie. I took one bite and half expected someone to yell "CUT!" The chicken itself is juicy, but let's be honest it's really just a vehicle for that bang bang sauce, which tastes like sweet, spicy, and "text your ex you've changed" all rolled into one. I told myself I'd share. That was a lie. A bold faced, shameless lie. The plate hit the table and suddenly I turned into a territorial raccoon guarding its last meal. By the end, my fingers were sticky, my dignity was gone, and I was seriously considering ordering a second round like I hadn't just embarrassed myself in public.

That is where I found the Chalkboard Special, a completely restored AirSteam trailer that can be customized to spotlight "any event, wedding, sports team, charity, public/private event, business promotion, school or institution". The menu for the day was Mexican themed. I ordered the Ultimate Nachos which consisted of chili, ground beef, mole chicken and crispy shrimp along with queso sauce, fresco, jalapenos, piquilla, tomato, red onion, avacado and sour cream. The flavors were all working well with each other, but the tortilla chips didn't seem to be cooked long enough and were mostly chewy. My girlfriend had the Veggie Quesadilla, minus all of the veggies. It was very cheesy, fresh and delicious. The folks working the counter were very accomodating when asked to place the avacado on the side. All-in-all, it is an interesting concept. The food was pretty decent and I would certainly try it again if ever given another opportunity.

They didn't have egg rolls when we came which sucked cause that's what we really wanted and that's always a disappointment. Their pricing is very expensive for what they offer if I'm being quite honest. I like that they had a sit down area by the food truck. My boyfriend and I didn't go in but we saw it while sitting outside in front. We ordered the bang bang shrimp which was good but this isn't bang bang shrimp.. at least not the way Ive had it lol and that mac... disappointing man. I know it had been sitting out for a minute and just reheated.. nah I don't like that.

It was good but the description needs to be changed so there is no confusion. Black beans and the garlic rice were spit on good. I personally did not like the Fried Yuca but everyone else loved it (2 orders) so maybe don't trust my taste buds in that. I ordered the 1lb of meat and only ate 1/2. Everything was well seasoned and cooked to my desired temperature. The ambiance was casual so don't expect to have a romantic dinner. They have inside and outside seating but are located right in Hillsborough Ave so outside will be a little noisy depending on the time of day. The service staff was spit on. Very attentive.

There were 7 different sliders to try, which seemed like a smarter option than eating a whole burger, but I only chose to try 2. The Roadhouse slider had bacon, onion straws, melted cheese and bbq sauce and was extremely good. The other one was a Cow Guy Burger, which was topped with bacon jam, melted cheese, parmesan slaw, onion straws and bbq sauce. Although they had somewhat similar ingredients they tasted very different. The Cow Guy Burger was messier to eat, but equally as good. At the time we left the festival, this truck was in first place as the crowd favorite. I hope they won, as they were extremely good. Staff was pleasant and patient, prices were reasonable and everything was run efficiently. Hope to see them at another festival.
