The Hottest Street Food In The Suburbs

The Bay Area has a raging food truck culture! And not just in San Francisco. Throughout the Bay, gourmet food trucks are popping up on street corners in every neighborhood. Roach coaches are a thing of the past. These suburban street food vendors create affordable, inventive, and delicious food, and stay in touch using social media. So once you hop online, you can hop on over and dig in.

What's not to like about "American Comfort Food on a Bun"? Try the classic burger, black bean burger, original red bell ketchup, and a seasonally rotating selection of specialty sandwiches. Save a few bucks and grab a "lunch box", a ready-to-go burger and fries meal, complete with an Arnold Palmer to wash it all down.
