So there has been an explosion of street food carts in San Francisco recently which I have not had a chance to try yet, only because they sell out by the time I decide to go! The only advertising they do is on Twitter as to location, day and time. So far, I have been following @cremebruleecart, @magiccurrykart,@AmuseBoucheSF and @tamalelady. and they are very amusing!
I think its great that we get a chance to eat food in a non-restaurant type of environment, a lot like they do in Asia. The guy handing you a bag of satay chicken covered in sauce and with pineapple in a plastic bag in Thailand does not provide table and chairs. People usually just crowd round the cart, eat and run. I’m sure its not like that in SF, people are friendly and like to say Hello! I will have to try it out and will blog about the experience.
So we are heading to the SF Street Food Festival today to try some tasty treats. I’m sure its going to be a lot of fun! I’m hoping to get some good pictures too, just hope its not too crowded.
