Yeah, we had 'roach coaches' back home in Honolulu.Food trucks have become quite popular in the San Francisco Bay area. Early food trucks were similar and sold breakfast stuff, then later lunch stuff to employees of companies in the area. They were fondly known as 'Roach Coaches'. Their stuff was sort of baseline mediocre, but in that way, that it had an appeal. The new food trucks are more interesting in that their food is often thematic of various cuisines and more upbeat restaurant type food. They sometimes have a special day where all the food trucks congregate in one location for a special convention of sorts. They also show up at other events, like the Gilroy Garlic Festival or air shows and such.
The newer food trucks are well worth visiting and checking out.
I can remember back in the 60's this one truck that was permanently parked down by the docks, where you could hire sport fishing boats, the best food!!!!
