If it is a repurposed school bus, does that make it a food bus instead of a food truck? I don't…read moreknow, and at the end of the day, what's the difference if the food is good! I had the pleasure of trying the Irish griller and the nachos, because, honestly, how can I resist nachos. Now, when I'd had corned beef before, it had only been from a can... so my expectations were not set particularly high. However, there's really no comparison between canned rubbish and this! Sandwich was nicely balanced and toasted (maybe grilled?) to perfection. There was a variety of textures and flavors to be found inside. There was a bit of cheesiness, but the stars on the plate were the slaw and the beef. The slaw was fresh with just the right amount of crunch, whereas the beef was tender and in just the right amount. I would have liked a little more sauce though, as I don't recall there being a whole lot of it. On the side perhaps? Also, and this is just me... but a little more cheese never hurts. Then there were the nachos... these fell short for me. As opposed to the thought put into the sandwich, these were like something a college student would throw together. Good nachos, in my opinion, are warm; whereas these were just chips for a bag with stuff thrown on top. The sauerkraut was quite nice, it that it wasn't overly sour. However, because this dish didn't move a thermometer, the beef and chips, and even cheese went together like oil and water. On top of that, the Thousand Island sauce didn't really work for me here. It might be great on sandwiches and salads, but not nachos.

More people need to review them and show some love! Wow wow wow. My brother and I decided to give…read morethem a shot at the Boston Night Market and saturday, initially because their line wasn't too long. We got an order of the corned beef fries. My god. Those things are DANGEROUS. They were truly unbelievable. The crispy fries paired with thousand island and corned beef made for a serious explosion of flavor. It didn't hurt that the guys working were so sweet and kind. I would absolutely stop by their bus again if I ever see them out and about.

Some food trucks are a step above, and Chicken & Rice Guys truck is one of them. It is everything I…read morecould want from a food truck and more! First, the service is lightning fast. It takes less than a minute to go from ordering your food to having the container in hand. Lunch breaks are precious, especially if it's 45 minutes long. Less time spent waiting is more time spent enjoying the blissful break from work. This is to say nothing of inclement weather! Then there is the food itself! I ordered a large chicken on rice with adds-ons of crisp onions and tomato+cuke. The chicken was tender and nicely seasoned, plus there was more than an ample amount. I always root for a place that isn't stingy with meat! The rice was forgettable, but considering this isn't an expensive sushi restaurant where every grain gets a mani-pedi before being sacrificed to humans. As a starch/carb element, the yellow rice was A-OK for the dish. The crisp onions were something I could have done without. Nothing against them; they felt unnecessary for me (not necessarily for you). Meanwhile, the tomato+cuke added some welcome freshness to the dish! Next time I will try to get half-rice, half-salad as my base... if not possible, I will get the tomato+cuke again, even though it isn't free. While ordinarily, I would pillory a place for charging $2.10 for a bit of veggie, though I appreciate this is what stops people from ordering rice and then getting five kilos of diced veggies on top of that! This is good and fine and would be a 4-star review. I would dust my hands off and get on with my day... but then there are the sauces. And let me tell you... sauces and I go together like milk and cookies! When my Uni had chicken nugget night, some would get a mountain of nuggies. Me? Five or six nuggies and every sauce/condiment the university had on tap! But I digress... the sauces added flavor, tied everything together, added additional moisture, and even played nice with one another! Did I mention sauces are self-service? The mint-cilantro-jalapeno was refreshing, flavorful, and had just a little kick! If you like a little heat, this might be great for you but proceed with caution (protecting myself from your lawyers!) The medium/"hot" actually brought some heat! And this is coming from someone for whom Tabasco tastes like salty vinegar! I dare not try the extra hot... I have high heat tolerance, but not that high! The flavor was okay, not mind-blowing, but combined with the creamy garlic, it was heaven! The creaminess took the edge away from the heat and added a whole new dynamic in texture. Plus, my Slavic heart loves garlic! Finally, the BBQ: I found this sauce unremarkable, similar to the BBQ sauce I have in my own fridge. However, I also realize that only some people like heat (or garlic), and I believe food is for everyone. Will absolutely be ordering from this truck again and again as long as it is nearby!

I wish I tried a torta as it looked really good, but next time! They also have locations in other cities--there's one in Medford too.

I remember when I first heard about this event. My initial thought was "oh look another way NYC and…read moreBoston can compete". Actually, I thought it was just another event New York City could dominate Boston at. But that's just the New Yorker in me. I kid, I kid. I've got nothing but love for Boston's food trucks. I was mostly interested in what trucks New York was going to come with as lets be honest the only food trucks I ever saw in NYC were the halal and hotdog trucks on the streets. And let's just say I was taught never to trust street meat. Good thing the website is good at listing the trucks and their websites so you can scope out the competition beforehand. Surprised to see almost all of them had websites. The first time this event was held in Dewey Square. Contained completely on the farmer's market island. My god it was a mess of lines and the wait for some of the trucks was horrendous. People had to plan strategically in their groups in order to hit as many of the trucks they wanted to try. Food truck competitions are serious business and apparently you call out a competition between NY and Boston you're going to pull a crowd to show some love for their hometown. It's understandable... even if the longest lines were from two NY trucks. The second time around the planners did a lot better location wise. They spread the trucks out along the less trafficked Greenway. Thank god they learned from last year. Also line control was handled a lot better.No funky zigzag across 4 different truck areas here. And there was also plenty of grass or curb to sit and eat. Now for the food. This competition has a habit of bringing an array of different cuisines. I had a plan to visit two trucks this time. Morrocan truck Comme Ci Comme Ca and Indian Chinese hybrid Momos & Buns. Most of the NY trucks had a limited 'Throwdown' menu. While I did pick up the kofka couscous from Comme Ci I would have really liked to try a few of their appetizers that I noticed on their website. The couscous was delicious and I think this was the first time I ever really tried Moroccan cuisine so I don't have anything to compare it to. But I'll definitely hunt down the truck when next I'm in NY. Momos I never got to. There was quite the line and I was not that patient. But while I was walking the area I stumbled upon the Cupcake Crew and tried their maple bacon cupcake. Wow, that was incredible. Although I think bacon makes most things taste better. In all it was a pleasant day with delicious food a relaxed atmosphere and I can't wait until next year's.

Hands down the best food truck in Boston. I've had this multiple times; the first time was at SOWA…read moreon opening day in 2015, which I waited an insanely long amount of time in line (practically an hour) since there were only 2 guys in the truck to take orders and make the food. It was well worth the wait though. I got the Torta Campechana, which has chorizo and carnitas (pork) in between their Telera bread and stuffed with beans, chipotle mayo, avocado, tomatoes, Oaxaca, cheese, onions, and chipotle. I've heard great things about this, and it didn't disappoint. Each bite was a mouthful of amazing flavor; I personally hate mayo but the mayo they used in this was great (flavored with something). The meat was tender and juicy and the sauces soaked into the bread a little, which made it better. The second time was at HubSpot's INBOUND 2016 conference, where I had a free meal ticket for attending. They only had 2 options this time, so I opted for the adodaba, which was pork with adobo sauce, lettuce and the same toppings as before. It also came with chips drizzled with a little bit of that chipotle sauce. This was almost as good as the campechana. Honestly, if I weren't gluten free now I would try every single one of their tortas - they're the best I've had, and I'm from SoCal, where there's authentic Mexican food aplenty. This is authentic, flavorful, and satisfying, without being overly rich, heavy, or greasy. 100% recommend. I'd also 100% go to their restaurant for tacos, which I haven't gotten around to yet (unfortunately).

Food trucks are finally back in Kendall Square (thank goodness bc the lunch options are slim!)…read more I've eaten at this food truck before and at the Davis location, but it's been a while. Tacos are $4 a pop which is steep, getting a burrito/torta/plate is more bang for your buck. Ordered the carnitas burrito, no beans (they only had black beans). The burrito was a good size for lunch, but if you're a big eater, you'll probably need a side (not as big as a chipotle burrito but much tastier). Decent portion of meat, tasty, only slightly spicy, great amount of cheese. Overall, good lunch and better than the other options in Kendall!
