The 4/27/2001 Food Truck Pod Highlights

Hey guys once again we went to the Orlando Food Truck Pod this past Wednesday night. As always your met with open arms from everyone. From the fellow blogger to fellow foodie. Even the Food Truck Owners remember you. The energy level was high again which is a great thing. Firestone Live even was setip selling beverages of choice as well.

This is a great place to go during the middle of the week to help get your mind off of things. You can let your hair down and let loose so to speak.

this has become a staple on my pod eatings

The Luther Vandross ( aka Krispy Kreme Burger)
I didnt get to try this one but it looked and smell heavenly.

Yum Yum Truck. I cant wait to see what the new flavor

Ming's Bistro : Orlando, Florida : April 2011

The guys and I had a craving for Dim Sum the other night. So we decided to go to Ming's Bistro. Granted it was at 8:30 at night nun the less we went. The staff was not overwhelmed that we came in at 8:30 even thought they don't close til 9:30. After we ordered she told us that once we ordered that if we want anything else it has to be before 9:00 otherwise they are not doing anymore cooking. That aside we stayed cause wanted to indulge in their cuisine.


The Rice Soup

The Chive Dumplings

The Fried Turnip

The Fried Spring Roll

The Meat Dumpling

The Steamed Beef Ball

The Taro Ball

The Sesame Balls



While the food was great the service was awful. We had to flag the server down to get refills on our drinks, she did apologize. It's not as if they were busy it was our table and one more. So the food great service awful you be the judge. We will be back though, maybe it was just an off night for them.

Orlando Food Truck Pod 4/20

Well despite that it looked like it would rain last night it didnt. Last nights pod was even better than last weeks. There were people everywhere sitting out on blankets, bring their own chairs and i did see one couple with their own fold out table.

The food was stellar last night (pics to follow below). The energy at each and every truck was amazing. The staff was great as well. If you've not done this yet I highly recommend it. All the trucks there take pride in their food and trucks.
