Downtown LA. Funky Art. A Flying Pig. An almost instantly legendary taco. And an ice cream sandwich with candied bacon … sign me up. Welcome fellow grubbers as we venture to the Downtown LA Art Walk to take in some art, soak up the culture, and dive into three mouthwatering food trucks.
We started off at the Flying Pig Truck and their pork belly bun. Piled up with those neon-pink, pickled onions and topped off with a little Sriracha, this crispy bun of yum is just the way to start off the tour through food truck insanity. And insanity is exactly what it is … in a totally amazing, mouth-tantalizing way.
Next stop, the truck that helped kick-start the foodie's food truck revolution … the Kogi Truck and one of their infamous short rib tacos. The one part marinade / one part salsa / one part hot sauce / one part freak-out juice is a flavor overload. It's a jolt to your taste buds as they tango up and down the streets of Kogi-land.
And with a solid two for two under our belts… how else could we turn this piggy overload into hyperdrive? The candied bacon ice cream sandwich from the Coolhaus Truck … you rang? As if a scoop of ice cream between two cookies wasn't enough … you had to through in some salty, crunchy bacon. Simply put ... Tommy Likey.
All in all, it's just an awesome journey to the monthly art fest in downtown Los Angeles. There's a bunch of galleries open to the public, showing off some serious creativity … and obviously … you have to make sure to hit up the parking lot overflowing with food trucks. Tell them The Good Grub sent you for some pork-tasmic goodness… and if they don't immediately escort you out … enjoy the GRUB!
