Inside the Vault
Here's a link to a little segment on the new show "Inside the Vault" that we were featured on. It's a slick new program aimed at the modern American man. The food truck clip starts around 2:53 in.
Don't confuse it with this "Inside the Vault" featuring the National WWII Museum. We've never been on that one.

We're making pork, chorizo and jalapeno chili as well as double bacon poutine as our specials for the week! And, wait for it, you can get any of our fries on chicharrones.

Fundraising Food Trucks this Week

This week we're hanging out with a bunch of trucks, helping raise funds for a variety of causes.
Tomorrow, find us at Glendale Community College from 11a-3p. A portion of all proceeds goes to the school's Leo Club.
On Wednesday, we'll be in Woodland Hills from 5:30-9p. Funds raised goes to the school's scholarship fund.
Lastly, we're hoping it doesn't rain on the Pasadena Junior League's Community Expo. There's a run/walk and all participants get free admission to a food truck circle. Anyone who doesn't want to get a little exercise in beforehand can purchase a wristband for admission, with proceeds going to the Pasadena Junior League. Sign up for a 5 or 10K at jrleaguepasadena.org!

2nd Annual Valentine's One-Night Stand Dinner

Tickets are now on sale for our 2nd Annual One-Night Stand Dinner. We asked our fans for their favorite aphrodisiacs and incorporated them into a special menu just for Valentine's Day. We've got well-known lust-inspiring foods like oysters and chocolate, as well as lesser known aphrodisiacs like pine nuts and mustard greens. The five-course menu also includes a taster flight of specially picked beers from the Verdugo Bar!
The dinner takes place on February 14th at 7:30p on the Verdugo Bar's patio. It's a seated event, so relax in the candlelight as all 5 courses (plus beer) come to you!

The Growth of Food Truck Nights!
If you want to try a bunch of different kinds of foods but don't feel like walking more than a city block to accomplish that feat, there's nothing like a food truck night. They're popping up all over, and there's no better way to have a fun time with a bunch of food.
This week, we're hitting Melrose Night on Thursday, which features great trucks and discounts at cool stores.
Then on Friday, we're making our first trip to the popular SGV Foodtruck Fest. Check out the scene from last month.
And we'll have a post soon about next week's kick-off food truck get-together and fundraiser at Taft High School in Woodland Hills!
