After the excitement from posting about my first hit of a Sydney Food Truck – Cantina Mobil – it took me no time to hunt (or stalk rather) another established truck. Actually, it was just perfect timing that Eat Art Truck was going to be nearby work and with it being EOFY peak period at the moment why not reward myself with a treat for dinner! I must say thanks goes to @SydneyFoodTruck for their food truck location and time updates!
I roam around Queen’s Square like a stalker, just waiting for the window to open!
A menu appears in the middle of Queen’s Park. I was so sad to see some of the items had been blacked out. It would have been nice to know what was under those markings, but none the less I still had a hard time figuring out what to eat all on my lonesome.
Kingfish Ceviche $10
The cubes of fresh kingfish were tossed around with lemon juice, chilli, corriander and spanish onions. The ceviche was bedded on some home made corn chips that were super crunchy and were able to withstand the juices so did not go soggy (the best!). The crunch of the corn chips complimented the soft texture of the ceviche. It had the right levels of zing, tang, spiciness and acidity. It was seriously amazing.
Pulled Pork in a bun with mustard cabbage $12
This is what got me excited – the pulled pork (drooling right now!). Upon ordering there’s a choice of the hot sauce or barbeque (non spicy) to accompany the pulled pork – of course I go for the hot sauce. The bun has got a great outter with it being slightly crispy but not crunchy and the innards being so soft.
Now look at that sexy pulled pork smothered in a spicy barbeque sauce. In the words of Billy Law, holey guacamole! It was so so so tender and melted in your mouth. The hot sauce had a big kick and I love how it made my nose water. It paired perfectly with the mustard cabbage as it was a contrast in flavours and textures. It made my eyes roll to the back of my head. That’s saying something…. Oh and don’t share it ;)
Coconut & Jackfruit Juice $4
To finish off my meal for one, I wash it all down with freshly made coconut and jackfruit juice. I love the coconut juice as it reminded me of the young coconut drink you get so often in Cabramatta and the real jackfruit pieces really cleansed my palette. A beautiful combination.
I met both boys who man Eat Art Truck – Stuart McGill and Brenton Balicki who are both lovely and funny. Thanks for serving up a great meal and looking forward to trying everything else on the menu :)
You can keep updated with the operating times and locations of Eat Art Truck via their website, twitter or facebook.
Love love love the pulled pork bun! & I don’t care what other people say about it being expensive. I would gladly pay $12 for it!
For such good food I don’t mind paying the price. With it being quite exclusive at the moment I’m not suprised about the prices. But yes, it was so damn good! Let’s stalk and have another one Raff :P
I do love the look of that pulled pork roll! And they’re very generous with the filling. That juice sounds delicious. I love jack fruit xx
I hope you get to hunt it down and try it for yourself Charlie :) my words aren’t the best when it comes to describing! I must say that juice concoction was heavenly!
I loved the food at Eat Art Truck! In fact I think I could eat a whole tray of those pulled pork rolls :P
It might be a competition between us Lorraine because I want a tray full of them pulled pork buns too! Hehe
a close up of the pulled pork.. MMM!
I cannot wait to try the Tsuru Food Truck! mini pork buns!! :D
You and me both ;)
I have been wanting to track one down, and now I NEED to – this looks amazing!
And I think its fine for me to say that you NEED to hunt them down, stat ;) It helps that one of the council approved locations is right near my work.. otherwise I don’t think i’d be able to catch them.
Mmmmmm! Surprisingly, I haven’t come across a truck yet – I don’t seem to be in the right place at the right time… :/
Oh no! As I was saying to another girl earlier, it does help that I am nearby a council approved location. If it wasn’t I don’t think I could hunt the food trucks down. Where are you located Tina?
Oh man, I would LOVE some pulled pork right about now. Must try making it again!
And I can’t wait for the recipe if you do! Have been meaning to make my own pulled pork but it seems to take forever to make. Need to find a cheat version haha
mmm that pulled pork looks amazeballs
I’m suprised you haven’t tried it yet! Hurrayyyy
Yay for food truck stalking! I have been hoping I would come across the Eat Art Truck but given I only seem to stay around home and work… I’m guessing that won’t happen soon. Am about to begin facebook stalking them now and will hunt them down just as you have done! x
Where abouts do you work? Perhaps check the council approved locations to see which one is closest to you? I’m quite lucky there’s a spot nearby work and thankfully it’s not during those late night time frames. I have a bed to crawl into hehe
gahhh everything is making me drool, i need to find this truck!
think you need to as well vivian :P
you stalked the other food truck down already!! wow it looks good, especially the pulled pork bun, you make it sound so delicious and i’m not even a fan of pulled pork usually. hopefully they put some of the items back on the menu soon!
It is so weird that they blacked so many things out, and when we went to order, they mentioned even MORE things were not available (and we were the first to arrive). Hopefully they switch to a blackboard to avoid disappointment! – otherwise, great buns & loved the chicken wings which you should def. try next time!
I’m seriously going to stalk these trucks next time I’m in the city!
You should you should!
i really want to try these ‘trucks’! thanks for the great review.
Hope you get to try one sooner rather than later :)
will be trying this tomorrow! can’t wait!
Did you get to try it yet?
