    I got some kind of beef and cheese wrap from a food truck once that was amazing. IDK the name of it though to track them down again. The last time I ate from one I just got a burger and it was pretty shitty.

    There’s a food truck in Victoria BC called The Melt Truck, has the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had. It’s saved my life more than once. The last time I’ve had food from a truck was in Nanaimo BC, The Poutine Truck (I can’t remember the exact name, that’s what we call it), and it was amazing. They have a bunch of different ones, I think I got the cheeseburger one. They have vegan options for just about all the options too. So good!

        If it’s the melt truck they are next to the corner of bay and rock bay, behind the card lock. Only Monday to Friday though! I get the original with banana peppers. And the poutine truck is all over Nanaimo, they have a fb page with their schedule. You will not be disappointed!

    I had an Oliebol last weekend. It’s basically a ball of fried dough (with raisins in my case) covered in powdered sugar.

    They’re a Dutch seasonal thing, traditionally eaten on new year’s eve.

    I got a feeling that a lot of people are going to post things like, “Unless you’ve had the kentil jabroni on the streets of Naventus, then you’ve never had street food.”

    I’m not well traveled, so my favorite is this food truck that serves nachos, but with tater tots. Tatchoes, if you will. Fucking amazing. I like Taco Truck tacos, but they are always so tiny and expensive these days.

      The best falafel sandwich I had was in Hebron, they were making it very freshly and it just cost like 30 cents or so.

    I love the BBQ push carts that have sticks of stuff you choose and they cook them right there.

    The last one I got was chicken hearts on a skewer, and liver skewer

    oh. I thought you meant food from less than licensed vendors so the only thing I ever got was street tamales. which are cheap and delicious.

    Best is a hard tie between a burger from the Bleeker van in London, and pani puri (crunchy pockets filled with curry) from a handcart in Pokhara. Most recently was moo ping (grilled pork skewers) from a stall in Thakek. They weren’t very good which made me sad.
