It's Gonna Be Hot, Hot, Hot (This Weekend)!

Due to the extreme weather this week, we're going to have to close the truck for a day or two (Tuesday's forecasted high is 103 degrees and Wednesday isn't much better). All our fryers, grill and charbroiler combined with the excessive heat outside make for a heat-stroke inducing environment on the truck!
To make up for it, we have a fun weekend planned. On Friday, it's the final Fusion Friday at the Pac Asia museum: An evening in 1930's Shanghai. Co-hosted by Asian Professional Exchange and the museum’s Chinese Arts Council, it features China Modern: Designing Popular Culture 1910–1970 (see image above). Get gussied up in cocktail or 1930’s attire and check out us and 3 other trucks in the museum's parking lot. To get in the museum (and the open bar inside) tickets are $10 members /$15 general admission in advance, $20 at door.

The next day we're headed to Anaheim for the OC Foodie Fest. This massive food fest features 50 of SoCal's best food trucks dishing out their specialties for 8 whole hours! A portion of proceeds at this ticketed event go to local charities and they'll also be local entertainment and fun shopping.

The weekend rounds out with a trip to the new LA Flea Market at Dodger Stadium. We'll have a fun breakfast special for early deal-snaggers (early bird lets in at 7am, with GA from 9a-4p), but our line-up of tasty fries will be on the ticket all day.

Stay cool this week!

Music and Fries

Music, beer and fries go hand in hand! We've been hitting various venues this week with more to come.

Tonight, we're headed to the Verdugo Bar for great brews and music from Soul Sides Summer Song Series.

Tomorrow, you'll find us at Scotland Yard pub in Canoga Park where Elephant Hunt (a live hip hop/jazz/funk band) will be bringing their big sound.

Friday, we'll be at the Aura night club in Studio City for Rock Circus Riot (featuring No More Kings, Adam Lasher Band and Swamphouse). There'll also be beer pong, see below.

The (Semi) Permanent Return of Poutine

Poutine, we've missed you. And you know what, you're here to stay! From now on, Frysmith will be carrying a poutine of the day whenever we can get our Ballard Family Farms cheese curds in stock. The gravy flavors will change but the hearty rib-sticking-osity will not.
