@Zach ah, well that wasn’t specified!

I’d say Lomo is at the top then Flying Pig, Fishlips (yes sushi from a truck) and Barbies Q are pretty good. For dessert get some shaved ice from GetShaved and treats from the Sweets truck.

Also, for some east coast lovin South Philly for cheesesteaks and Slice Truck for pretty decent NY-style pizza.

ya…..i eat a lot from trucks. i could keep going…

My standard order: turkey, double dipped with a LOT of mustard, cole slaw, custard and two iced teas.

@jam – Oh… I’m already a disciple at the altar of Kogi, but I have to try Lomo Arigato!

@FoodGPS – There really isn’t much not to like about Philippe’s, but I have to go back for the full experience. I showed up late, so a friend ordered for me. I ended up with roast beef, double dipped and cole slaw. Also got to try a bite of his lamb, but clearly I need to go back for a pork sandwich, beets, and an egg pickled in beet juice. I love horseradish, so I was all about the mustard. Got any other recs for my next visit?

What’d you think of Philippe’s? Which dip did you order, and was the mustard spicy enough for you? Also, any pickled eggs?

To start, I think you need to go to the godfather of the truck movement, Kogi. They have a lot of trucks nowadays are usually downtown once or twice a week. Then I’d say Lomo Arigato for some killer lomo saltado.
