FOOD TRUCK ADVENTURE

I’m sure their choice for a food truck name has conjured up all sorts of reactions. And if it’s the first time you’ve heard of them, don’t let the name drive you away. If you love all things food, then you’re in for a treat as Chef Alvin and the Egg Slut crew whip up egg-centered goodies.I’ve blogged about the Egg Slut when they were fairly new in the GFT game. Read about it HERE. And now I’m back to introduce to you some NEW menu items.

Sausage, Egg & Cheese

Sausage, Egg & Cheese – This hunk of a breakfast sammie is made from “Truck Made” turkey breakfast sausage, over medium egg, Tillamook cheddar cheese, honey mustard aioli in a brioche bun. J, who happens to be a very picky eater, likes this one. The turkey sausage has a bite to it from the ground pepper but not overly so and well seasoned, it’s nicely rounded by the over medium egg and beautifully finished with the sweet tang of the honey mustard aioli. Simple yet heavenly.

Scrambled Eggs and Toast

Scrambled Eggs and Toast…oh yeah, you’re thinking it’s probably something you can make at home, right? Just like you think you can make the unassuming grilled cheese until you’ve had The Grilled Cheese Truck. Looks simple but the flavor is all but simple. Chef Alvin made this buttery scrambled eggs with chives served “open faced” on a thick cut french loaf to be the ultimate luxe breakfast item, to me this is luxe. Soft, pillowy, buttery…luxe.

Kaya Toast

Ahh…Kaya Toast…this menu item is super new. Don’t let the appearance fool you. I would call this the perfect weekend snack. A rich tropical snack. Made from eggs and coconut milk whipped together, flavors reminiscent of the Filipino’s beloved “bibingka“, resulting in this curd-custard consistency and spread in between toasts, served with over medium egg with sweet soy. It’s such a treat to have a snack that reminds me of “bibingka” and “Pasko” without the actual “bibingka” and although the timing is right (i.e., Christmas season), I was in West Hollywood instead. I would like to try this dish with thin slices of salted duck egg on top of the custard…making it “bibingka especial“

bibingka – Philippine rice cake made with rice flour and coconut milk. Usually topped with butter, eggs and coconut. It is a traditional Christmas food sold outside of Churches where people buy it after the “Simbang Gabi”/midnight mass. (source: wikipedia)

Pasko – tagalog for Christmas

Pancake Taco

The Pancake Taco is Egg Slut’s version of your breakfast tacos. Scrambled eggs, bacon drizzled with maple syrup served sandwiched on a folded fluffy pancake.

PBJtotheZ

PBJtotheZ – named after one of Egg Slut’s loyal customers, @JtotheZ. It has peanut butter cream cheese icing, Bonne Maman fig preserves, hickory smoked bacon, fried egg in a brioche bun. This, to me and the kiddies, is THE ONE. It has the perfect combination of sweet, salty and savory. This one is a MUST TRY.

Bacon, Egg & Cheese – the name speaks for itself. If the sausage is not for you and you prefer bacon, then this is the one for you. Super rich, heaven in a bun kind of thing.

Thee Slut

Thee Slut – this Egg Slut classic is still available. It is soft coddled egg on top of potato puree, cooked in a glass jar and garnished with grey salt and chives. A classic and a MUST TRY.

So if you’re in LA, it’s about time you find Egg Slut and give them a try. They will not disappoint.
