After watching the Great food truck race I thought it was time for this thread
What are the best food trucks in LA/OC?

Heres mine(in no order)

- Kogi - very good korean/mexican fusion. The only con is the ridiculous long lines.

- Ta bom truck - very good brazilian food

- El Taquito - best taco i ever had in my life( im not mexican so dont bash me)

- Dos Chinos - great asian/latino fusion. great comfort food

Havent tried Grill Em All yet but will when the hype goes down. Tried Nom Nom truck and it was just okay.

Ludo Fried Chicken is great.

There are these two food trucks I heard of, one Hawaiian shaved ice and the other dim sum... but I don't know the names.

Kogi is definitely awesome, as is The Grilled Cheese Truck

Grilled Cheese, Kogi, Lomo Arigato

I find the Frysmith truck to be highly overrated.

There are a couple food truck gatherings near me in Orange County every week. So I've been getting food from a truck once a week for like 6 weeks now.

Here are my favorites so far:

1. Piaggio Gourmet On Wheels
http://www.piaggioonwheels.com/

This place is awesome. It's Argentinian food so they put chimichurri on everything. Yum. The portions are also pretty generous, which is generally my complaint with most food trucks. You usually don't get a whole lot of food for your money.

2. Barcelona on the Go
http://www.barcelonaonthego.com/calendar/

This is Spanish food, but they also put chimichurri on a bunch of stuff.

3. Lime Truck
http://thelimetruck.com/

These guys won the second season of Food Network's Great Food Truck Race. Their food has many international influences and they have bold flavors.

Slammin' Sliders is a good one. Not just burgers -- they do a fried shrimp slider and a lobster-cake (like crab cakes, but with lboster and crab meat) slider, too. Good flavor, albeit a bit pricey.
