Filipino Food Trucks
Filipino food bloggers around the world in the deepest chambers of their being know that the heart and soul of what they do is to push awareness of Filipino food. I think that is just what we need as Filipino food is so much overlooked and underrated.
Picture this: You are a Filipino, you are hanging out with your friends, you get hungry, would it be unusual if you suddenly tell them, shall we have Filipino food? What do you think? If you are in LA or San Francisco it ain’t unusual.
The world already knows that there was an explosion of Food Trucks in LA since that Korean Food Truck sensationalized street food more than Anthony Bourdain can. Filipinos jumped in on the craze and spat out 3 trucks that give LA Filipinos ease whenever they want Filipino food, either for themselves or to share with their friends, then start talking about how wonderful our cuisine is.
It’s a FTW (for the win) for every Filipinos not only in LA but everywhere. So here are 3 of the Filipino Food Trucks that broke the news hymen and are taking over the streets of Barack Obama.
Filipino Food Truck the THE MANILA MACHINE
The Manila Machine: Filipino Food Truck Rolls Out By Amy Scattergood from LAWeekly blogs
Marvin from Burnt Lumpia and Nastassia from Let Me Eat Cake, both Filipino food bloggers did a fantastic job. The truck looks like a massive dirty ice cream stroller because of it’s out-there color. I don’t even know what to say now because these guys walk the talk from their blogs. If you go to the links section and go through all the Filipino food bloggers in US and Canada there are a few that resonate this success in their entries. Everyone got excited with the news. Even me. I don’t even know these people. But I love them now.
Filipino Food Truck SENOR SISIG
There’s A New Filipino Taco Truck in Town. Meet Senor Sisig By John Birdsall, SFWeekly blogs
See that pig on the emblem of the truck. That my friend is a proud hog. These hip-hoppers make me proud too. They dropped sisig like it’s hot! I like their logo so much that whenever I look at it, i want to chop some pig’s head (that’s not really right). Don’t forget to watch the video. Burrito Sisig sir? Massage? I think they do all that. Just go read the article, watch the video and if you are around San Francisco, go munch on a pig’s head.
Filipino Food Truck the WHITE RABBIT
White Rabbit Truck: Mobile Filipino Fusion Launches By Noah Galuten from LAWeekly blogs
Now I wonder where these guys got their name. A candy perhaps. The chef is going for fusion which I think is way too early for Filipino Food. But if the business calls for it, i don’t care, I love it, they have a subtext in the truck that says, FILIPINO in huge fonts.
These Filipino Food Trucks are, I reckon, a beginning of more revolution on Filipino Food. If you are thinking of putting up a Filipino food business, I say go for it papi! You can do it!
Watch out for more articles about these Filipino Food Trucks!












Awesome! This is another reason why I miss living in L.A. Wish we had one of these here
I miss Pinoy food that someone else cooked. lol!
I wish I lived in california. I have been trying to convince my husband to do this in Chicago. I’m still working on convincing him
.
a cool way to spread awareness and make money at the same time … mmmhhhh how I wish one day when our place will be full with Filipino craving people, will definitely invest my time to this fun looking trucks ;D ….
hahahahaha it made me laugh reading my own comment …. what I meant was …. when our place will be full with Filipino food craving pinoys and puti, will definitely invest in this cool, convenient and pinoy loving business concept.
I want one!!!! Mine would be red…am still waiting for my two chikitings to grow up a bit before embarking on a filipino food business…
ziggy,
im quite lucky that i was at scene when manila machine was launched. but not quite lucky that i didn’t get to taste their food because they sold out when we came… sayang!
but i guess i will have the chance to chase the truck soon again…and the other pinoy food trucks as well.
Im with you, we should help push the awareness of the Filipino food.. it’s about time the world needs to know “us” through our food.
great post…woot woot!
cheers!

Jollijeep, West Coast style! So my adolescent dream of vending banana cue and sago’t gulaman along Wall St. or in Times Square isn’t as ridiculous as it seems! Go, go, adobo!
