    The wonderful couscous with lamb--unparalleled quality for a food truck.
    Teresa F.

    One of my favorite food trucks on Penn's campus! If I had to describe the feel of Chez Yasmine in one word, I would say elegant. From the crusty baguette sandwiches to the sophisticated salads, everything on the menu is delicious. Yes it's a little more expensive than some, but you're paying for quality, plus you get a piece of fruit and a bottle of water. I've kept coming back because of the unique menu options and the friendly service (the owner has a special place in his heart for his regulars--strike up a conversation while you're waiting for your food and get to know him, he's a sweetheart!). I've tried almost everything on the menu, and some of my favorites (in no particular order) are the Wistar (pesto, brie, avocado with chicken and/or grilled mushrooms on a baguette), the chicken banh mi (light and fresh), and the Menange a Trois (perfectly crispy, mustard-y grilled cheese with a cup of the soup of the day, which is always delicious!). Once in a while I treat myself to the flavorful couscous as well, which usually comes vegetarian but you can add chicken and on some days, lamb. The lamb is a little pricier but totally worth it--so tender, and the flavor complements the root vegetables and harissa sauce wonderfully.

    Chicken couscous was awesome. Very flavorful but also very healthy and filling. Came with a fruit and a bottle of water

    Great food for a real good price. Try the couscous and salmon smorgas. I love most things on the menu.

    I really enjoyed the salmon smorgas, well prepared very fresh and the caviar is a nice touch.

    That absolutely shouldn't carry the name "Brazilian." I went to the Philadelphia Brazilian Festival…read moreand got excited to see a food truck offering a Brazilian plate. As soon as I opened my plate, I was so disappointed that I lost my appetite. The rice was flavorless, the beans tasted like they came from a can, and the lettuce had no seasoning and had a terrible cheese on top of it. The meat was tough and flavorless, and I spent a good minute chewing because it was so hard. It was the worst $15 I've ever spent--I wouldn't even pay $2 for that meal. Terrible! If you're going to carry the name "Brazilian" on your food truck, PLEASE do it right. Even if it wasn't supposed to be Brazilian, it was still a terrible meal. On top of that, I waited more than 20 minutes for it to be made, along with several other people who were also complaining about the wait time. I will never get anything from this food truck again and do not recommend it to anyone. ---------------- Isso absolutamente não deveria carregar o nome de "brasileiro". Fui ao Festival Brasileiro da Filadélfia e fiquei animada ao ver um food truck oferecendo um prato brasileiro. Assim que abri o prato, fiquei tão decepcionada que perdi o apetite. O arroz estava sem gosto, os feijões tinham gosto de enlatado, e a alface sem tempero algum, vinha com queijo ruim em cima. A carne era dura e sem sabor, e eu passei um bom tempo mastigando porque estava muito dura. Foi o pior $15 que já gastei -- eu não pagaria nem $2 por essa refeição. Horrível! Se você vai carregar o nome "brasileiro" no seu food truck, POR FAVOR faça direito. Mesmo que não fosse para ser brasileiro, ainda foi uma refeição terrível. Além disso, esperei mais de 20 minutos para que fosse preparado, assim como várias outras pessoas que também reclamavam do tempo de espera. Nunca mais vou pegar nada desse food truck e não recomendo a ninguém.

    Possibly the best food truck in university city. Fabulous meats…read more Try a different meat each time you come by. It's just fabulous. The picana beef to die for. Rice and beans with salad. Chicken wrapped in bacon. Grilled pineapple.
