The Seabirds Food Truck is based out of Orange County in California. The Great Food Truck Race welcomed them in Season 2. And these ladies run a VEGAN food truck! Heck yeah!
They left the race in week 4 after a slow start. They won the Truck Stop and the privilege to park in a money-making are of Manhattan, KS, but, they didn't work fast enough during service to make enough money to stay in the race. Such is life! Great food, good reception, but the attention to detail did them in.
The Seabirds seem to be pretty popular. Above they are at the Ellen Show. And below they are visited by Moby. There are many other celebs patronizing their truck... let ME at a vegan food truck! That seems to be the way to go!
Their summer menu features Beer Battered Avocado Tacos. That sounds devine. I upped my ante and made Beer Battered Italian Tacos. I followed their same format, corn tortillas. cabbage, red onions, lime and jalapeno-cilantro sauce, but I replaced the avocado with slices of Italian Tofurkey sausage and yellow bell pepper.
This was so good! That beer batter is amazing - it stays crispy even after I made everyone wait for dinner until the photos were done. Unhappy family during photo shoot, very happy family during dinner.
You can replace the sausage and peppers with thick slices of avocado, making this taco just like the Seabirds', or you can swap in anything. This one is a flexible recipe.
Fry vegan Ho-Ho's if you must!
Do they even make vegan Ho-Ho's?
Hey I wanna come hang out at that food truck with you. That is one cool looking food truck too. Sausage and peppers on tacos are the way to go but I think I'll pass on the fried hohos.
ReplyDeleteI love their truck, too! Yes, please, let's hang out and eat some tacos there. I'll call you when I'm in LA.
Deletecool!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me that I need to find this truck. It's in my "back yard" so to speak,
ReplyDeleteDid you know that they are opening a B&M restaurant later this year? (In the OC of course, 'couse this is where all the cool, vegan, kids hang out....)
That's neat! Maybe I can trek up there to see how the better half lives ;)
Deletewhere is the recipe, that's not fair to put this post in finding vegan
