So delish I'm tempted to go back for seconds before they leave in 13 minutes time. The chips were pretty good too. Look them up, find them, stalk them. However you describe it - get on it! Fun fact - they put chips in the souva. I know this isn't groundbreaking, but not many places do it now and it's still fun!

I got the chicken wrap with tzatziki and mustard sauce and chips and fetta. FABULOUS. So zesty tangy and flavourful, the chicken had a pleasant smokiness to it. When I got here there was a road full of other food trucks and this truck had all the people - now I know why! Food coma now

The bao was pretty good: lots of flavor, delicious bun, and a good amount of veggies, though there was too much hoisin sauce in my opinion.

This bagel burger truck needs to hit Melbourne inner suburbs pronto!…read more Ive only heard of them when I saw (sniffed) the truck at the cheese and cider festival. Here's the lowdown Menu The truck listed saganaki, smoked salmon, porketta and beef on the day. All $12 a pop and the burgers were filled with salad, sauce, and yummy extra (like sweet potatoes in the saganaki ) Service You can smell the truck from miles away, grilling and saucing, and calling your name. Once paid, you are given a card ( like from a deck of playing card ) and this is your name/number/code. Service is quick, cute, and friendly. Feedbacks were requested and we only have great ones. Overall, great value for the price, the bagels were perfect, and tasted amazing. It was a unanimous decision in our group that this is the best bagel burger truck around.... Ok, best burger truck? Best bagel burger? Whatever, its just best! and it needs to come closer to us!

When I went on a Monday evening at about 7pm there was no one at all lining up for the food (every other night seemed to be super busy). I ordered the chicken taco and also the vegetarian (black bean) taco. They were $6 each and came in their own little package. I did seem to wait for a good while for them, maybe cause I was the first customer that evening. They were both tasty but I would def recommend the chicken taco if you are going to go one over the other.

I have ordered them on 2 separate occasions now and found them to be delicious, cheap and generous in portion. I'm local to the area of High Street, Northcote, which attracts a number of the fashionable mobile vendors. I think that as the "scene" becomes more competitive, we may start to see some vendors rise and some fall. Dos Diablos seems to be fairly new on the scene (and possibly encroaching on territory previously staked-out by other vans'). I'm hoping they stick around and will certainly do my best to make it so - 2 vegan tacos at a time!

Located on 50 Rose Street in Fitzroy, the store's close proximity to the Rose Street Artist Market is a boon to it's existence. Sharing a space with Mottanai Vintage Cycle keeps things interesting. Perusing vintage bikes while waiting for your meal puts an ironic spin on things, given that many people in India ride old and rusty bikes too. The furniture is albeit low, but well put together. Old milk crates double up as tables while short stools dot the space in abundance. My friend and I shared 2 Dosas, one filled with masala potatoes and the other filled with smokey eggplant. The crisp dough made of fermented rice and lentil batter had a hint of acidity to it. Also, there are lentil poppers which make for a good snack. That being said, the star of the show is the wide range of chutneys. I would recommend getting the hot chili one if you are not afraid of pain. At this price point ($9), these guys are over-providing. The treats are both vegan and gluten-free too. What are you waiting for?

For those not in the know dosas are very thin crepes traditionally filled with spiced potato. Overdosa's menu is simple offering potato masala, spiced pumpkin or eggplant filling. Your dosa also comes with either a coconut or hot chilli chutney. You can also order poppers which are delicious fried lentil balls. We had the potato masala and the poppers with coconut chutney. I'm no expert but my companion who is Indian rated them very highly. They are hot fast and delicious. He devoured the poppers so quickly I only managed a couple. All the options here are vegan and although I am a sworn carnivore I can say that it was so tasty it didn't matter. The guys are super friendly and really keen to hear what you think of their food and have a chat. They will be at the Evelyn on Brunswick st over Anzac weekend and then they fly to India to spend a few months collecting recipes to expand their offerings and possibly open a restaurant. If you are in the mood for Indian I highly recommend checking them out.

Grabbed a burger from 'Real Burgers - American Street Food' which wasn't really worth the 20 min wait, but at least was only $10. Didn't mind though as still enjoyed the general vibe. Hope it makes an appearance here every summer.

So what is "jerk"? I wasn't quite sure myself till last night. The guys from The Voodoo Jerk Truck…read moreexplained to a few Yelpers and myself. Basically, jerk refers to jerk spice either dry-rubbed or web marinated onto meat (or tofu if you're a vegetarian or "not a jerk") relevant to The Voodoo Jerk Truck's cooking style. This is my first real experience to trying Caribbean-Jamaican style food, so definitely not an expert in this style of cooking or food. The Voodoo Jerk Truck guys gave us a little taste test of their signature "Jerk Spice" and "Jerk BBQ sauce". Make sure you ask to taste of their jerk before you try their food, as this will help make more sense of how the jerk is incorporated into their food. The Jerk Spice has a natural earthy flavour with a bit of spice with no sweetness, and slight grainy texture to it. It's not spicy like Indian or Thai flavours, more of a garlic spice. I tend to like spices with a sweet note, so I had to think about this Jerk Spice for a few seconds before deciding whether I liked it or not. I actually didn't mind this flavour. If you like spices (in general) or an earthy (less sweet) flavour, then this Jerk Spice will probably be for you. Unlike the Jerk Spice, Jerk BBQ sauce has a smooth texture and slightly sweet texture. It's a lot runnier in texture than your usual supermarket BBQ sauce, and sweeter too. It's definitely not strong in flavour as the American BBQ sauce typically used in ribs. If you're a BBQ connoisseur, then you will probably appreciate this unique flavour. Mel P bought two Rude Boy Chips for a group of six, which came in a little basket. The Rude Boy Chips is a "beer battered chips with rude boy salt & bombastic sauce). These chips are amazing. Let's be honest, we all love hot crispy chips on it's own. Good sauce is a bonus. The Voodoo Jerk Truck boys got it right with the crispy beer battered chips and the sauce. Definitely a good dish to share in a group. Following the chips, I had the The Voodoo Beef Burger which was made of "braised rib, jerk BBQ sauce, garlic aoili, carrot & cabbage slaw)". The braised rib is very tender which is how I love my braised beef. The combination of the braised rib, Jerk BBQ sauce, garlic aoili and carrot/cabbage slaw gave a very wet feeling (probably intended) so expect your fingers get slightly greasy if you get your hands on this burger. If you can overlook the "wet" texture between the buns, then it's worth a try particularly if you're a Burger lover. Personally, I would of preferred the braised rib with just the BBQ sauce and lettuce. I found the garlic aoili, carrot and cabbage slaw let down the BBQ jerk sauce. But hey, that's just me. My partner enjoyed the burger, and usually he tends to complain about burgers being too messy, big or overload with ingredients or juices. The Jerk Pork Ribs was made up of "grilled jerk spice ribs with mint yoghurt" was delicious. The combination of the grilled jerk spice ribs dipped into mint yoghurt was match made in heaven. If you can eat pork or appreciate ribs as more than just meat on bones, then you'll enjoy this because my partner and I certainly did. This is a great dish to eat at a camp fire, festival or party. The food is similarly priced to other popular food trucks. If you feel like getting your jerk on, grab a few of your friends along to try the Jerk Spice and BBQ Jerk sauce flavours at The Voodoo Jerk Truck. The menu also caters for vegetarians but The Rude Boy Chips and Jerk Pork Ribs is a must try. I want to go back and try their other dishes particularly the Bermuda Bread, Caribbean Salad and Blazed pineapple.

Los Barbudos has a new permanent food-truck set up out the back in the way of Voodoo Jerk Truck. I…read morewas going to make a crack about introducing some jerks, but the guys we met from the kitchen were really lovely, so I'm not gunna do that. The menu is split in two: Jerk and Not a Jerk. Anything in the 'Not a Jerk' section doesn't have their jerk spice seasoning - however if you order from this menu, I do recommend grabbing that big bottle of their own Jerk BBQ sauce because it is delicious and was a big hit with our group. Tastes just like the jerk spice only with a bit of extra sweetness. I had the cauliflower salad and some rude boy chips to share with the group. The chips were excellent - covered in spices and mayo with great crunch. I may have gotten stuck into more than one serve of these... The cauliflower salad was tasty, although it was a tad soggy. I like my veggies crunchy, so I found the cauliflower itself was a bit overcooked and dressing-soaked. Flavours were good though. Other dishes like the pork ribs and jerk burger were being hungrily devoured by others and the noticible lull in conversation suggested everyone was into it. If you come early, you can take advantage of the Los Barbudos Happy Hour which has $8 mojitios until 7pm (although really...the full price of $10 is still decent!). A good bar-food option if you're stopping by for some rum downstairs.
