Tuk Tuk Truck in Orlando, FL

I tried TukTuk Thai Cuisine at a recent Food Truck Bazaar in Casselberry. This was my first time coming across this food truck. I'm not sure how long they've been around, but I decided to try their take on mobile Thai food.
I ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai. The noodles were cooked with egg, tofu, bean sprouts, peanuts, and cilantro. The Pad Thai had plenty of flavor, but I would have preferred slightly larger shrimp. The tiny little shrimp in the dish were somewhat sad looking.
TukTuk was okay. It was good, but not outstanding. Their prices seemed a bit more affordable for what you get compared to some of the other food trucks that frequent the bazaars. I'd try something else from TukTuk, but not before I try some other food from trucks which I haven't tasted yet.

Pupusas Food Truck in Orlando, FL

The Pupusas truck has been around since the beginning of the food truck craze in Orlando. I remember seeing them at the first Food Truck Bazaar, but it wasn't until recently that I finally gave them a try.
I had the traditional chicken pupusa.The pupusa consisted of chicken,cheese, and refried beans inside of a thick tortilla. This stuffed tortilla was topped with cabbage and carrots, and there was a selection of sauces to choose from on the side.
I honestly wasn't sure the proper method of eating the pupusa. I initially thought of folding the stuffed tortilla over the cabbage and eating it all like a sandwich, but it didn't seem to fold very well. I ended up ripping off pieces and eating it that way. I guess I still don't know the proper eating method...

Korean BBQ Taco Box in Orlando, FL



The Korean BBQ Taco Box was among one of the initial food trucks in Orlando that started the food truck craze that we're in right now. Everyone seemed to love this place, but it took me a while to actually try them.
When I finally got around to trying one of the Korean BBQ Taco Boxes, it was at one of the Food Truck Bazaars in the Oviedo Mall parking lot. I was reading the truck's menu when someone inside yelled out that they only had one box left, containing some sort of beef, and I could get it for half price. Sounded like a good deal, so I went for it. My mystery box contained beef cooked with onions, rice, and two fried chicken drumsticks. I was disappointed, with the beef being so fatty and tough that I couldn't eat most of it. The fried chicken was much better, but it wasn't the main focus of the meal either. I guess you get what you pay for I suppose with a half price meal...

While at the Food Truck Bazaar at Winter Springs High School, I decided to give the Korean BBQ Taco Box another try. I figured I should have their food when it wasn't the discounted bottom of the barrel. This time around, I tried the Spicy Pork Taco Box.
 The box came with a taco, salad, chicken wing, tempura potato, and a fried cheese roll. This was a huge improvement over my first meal with the Taco Boxes. The taco was filled with spicy shredded pork topped with lettuce. The salad consisted of iceberg lettuce with ginger dressing. The chicken wing was similar to what I had previously, and still good. The cheese roll was interesting too. It was like an egg roll filled with rice and cheese.
After my second meal with the Korean BBQ Taco Box Trucks, I am now a fan!

Yum Yum Cupcake Truck in Orlando, FL

Yum Yum Cupcake Truck was among one of the first gourmet food trucks to show up in Orlando. As their name implies, they specialize in cupcakes. Yum Yum can generally be found at the Food Truck Bazaars as well as other food truck events around town.
They always seem to have a large selection of cupcakes on hand:
I tried one of their peanut butter cupcakes at the Lake Lily Food Truck Pod. 
This salted caramel cupcake, topped with caramel popcorn, came from the very first Food Truck Bazaar in Casselberry.
