I was directed to the Colombian Cravings Cart where I saw a chart of improbable combinations of condiments and other items like Potato Chips for the hot dogs. I have no idea what is in the " special sauce " but the combo of it with chips and the broiled and then slightly barbaqued hot dogs was heaven !!! Then I look over to the left and see a guy making meat magic in the style I had only seen in Argentina - Parrilla style ( pa ree sha ...lol ) Chicken and steak so good - it would be any vergaterians nightmare. I was so impressd that I contacted the owner later about possible supplying some hot dogs at the Rotary Club of Miami Beach's next meeting. I expected them to drop off a few hot dogs and sodas but No ... The came full gear with the Hot Dog Cart and portable Parrilla Grill and they made the stuff right there during our meeting !!! The contents of the meeting were quickly forgetton because all the visiting Rotarians from Europe wanted to do is eat the food ....lol The wife is from Colombia and the husband from Argentina and they work alot of festivals and races like the Dragon Boat series and a lot of the Relay for Life Events. If you want to impress someone or yourself at your next function, meetng - I highly suggest Colombian Cravings -- they are booked solid though the World Cup btw ... colombiancravings@hotmail.com

Can truckin' and palatable food mix as well as truckers and amphetamine psychosis or underage…read morerunaways mix? In the case of the first and longest operating food truck in Miami, homemade Filipino delicacies and four wheels definitely mix. I began my adventure with a half-Pinay (Filipina) at Parking Lot F in Terminal C at the Port of Miami. I did so many laps before I found it, that I thought I saw someone in a shiny jumper waving a checkered flag. Just head toward the Cruise ship terminals and it's all the way at the end. Years of full-contact drinking, exposure to harmful chemicals and working in nuclear facilities has insured that my memory is as muddled as a Lychee Mojito. But here's what I remember -- Longaniza: grilled Fire Cracker sausage with a touch of sweetness. Lumpia: fried spring rolls of Chinese origin served with sweet chili sauce. Only served during fall, winter and select Filipino holidays because they don't keep well. Pancit: special lo mein made with rice vermicelli noodles instead of ramen. Grilled Milkfish: mild, flaky fish with some free shrimp thrown in. I did as I was instructed an went for the stomach first. Taro Leaves: stewed in coconut milk with a spicy kick served with steamed white rice. We were stuffed but had to try the Ube (purple yam) cake and the Puto, not androgynous male prostitutes, sugary rice cakes. While she read descriptions of Calbee shrimp flavored puffs, and Chlorella Soap (not to be confused with Cholera) on the market side of the truck, I was busy getting to know the regulars of the FFT. Here's what I can't forget -- I quickly learned that "piripinos" don't want anything to do with our prime rib carving station or overflowing chocolate fountains on the cruise ships. Where else would you have such gaudy food as ice cream sundae buffets? I can see how mass produced meals can seem clinical and apathetic. They were looking forward to slow-food they didn't have to wait for. By the way they ate; you'd think that these laborers were fed gruel and water three times a day. They showed up with famished stomachs and souls, empty from dealing with newlyweds and our aging American population. After eating with gloved hands instead of utensils, the Pinoys were in such a festive mood that the coolers come out. San Miguel and Heineken bottles were everywhere and as the flood of memories and emotions rushed in, much singing and laughing rushed out. At 11am after gorging themselves on comfort food, these exhausted men were offering to buy me more food, opening my beers and making recommendations. After 45 minutes of this they had to return to their ship and we hugged it out and made promises to see each other we never kept. It's worth getting lost in the port just to have half the experience we did.

Mmmmm, delicious!! Thanks, soooo much, Rony, for reviewing this place. The owner here is super…read morefriendly and helpful. He's the type of chill person who will have a conversation with you like he's known you forever and he makes some dang good food! He no longer makes cake, pancit, or lumpia (at least not during the hotter summer months because they don't hold up well in the heat), however, he's got a delicious spread of other dishes like pork adobo, chicken in a basic sweet/sour brown sauce, fish, blood something or other (pinoy people, I'm sure you'll know what I'm talking about), and a really delicious spinach/collard green like veggie cooked in coconut milk (taro leaves--thanks Rony). If you've ever had Cambodian or Vietnamese rice cake in banana leaf (num anksom in Khmer), then you will love that veggie. It reminds me of the flavor in the rice in a rice cake. Anywho, this truck also has a wide spread of SE Asian drinks like thai tea and some yummy fruit juices and nectars, like nice thick mango nectar in the glass bottle. There is also a nice spread of filipino snacks, like those season toasted corn thingies ~~yum~~~ and some basic filipino ramen-style packaged rice noodles. In terms of the food quality, it was all super delish! The meat was typical filipino sweet/sour for both the pork adobo and the chicken, but the adobo is more of a sweet/salty flavor opposition, too. It is supposed to be salty and worked wonderfully with the diced tomato and onion salad condiment on the side. For a spoonful of pork adobo to try and the chicken dish with rice along with the stewed taro leaves and the onion and tomato salad, a giant can of thai tea, and a gifted corn snack, it was $7. And a note on cleanliness--the owner was meticulous about cleanliness and about always keeping lids on food to keep flies away. FYI, if you ask him what he has, he will tell you what "safe" dishes he has, however, if you are a more adventurous diner, ask him what about the other dishes and let him know you are not a fussy eater and he'll show you and explain the rest. He is also very nice about letting you sample before you choose. You can find the food truck in the J Terminal at the end of Asia Way, closer to the exit from the terminals back toward the city. He generally closes shop at 4PM and arrives at about 8AM. You can park for free at the lot directly across the street and the entrance to the lot is just past the truck. In short, next time you go to the beach, downtown, design district, etc around 8a-4p, consider lugging your butt to the port for a tasty filipino treat! I mean, how often do we actually get good Asian food in this city?? And SE Asian?? I mean, cmon!

We ordered the shrimp tacos and "Arsenio's Favorite Burrito," and I have to tell you, you can taste the freshness of all the ingredients layered together. The shrimp taco was literally too much to hold in one tortilla, served with a side of pico de gallo and their homemade sauce--spectacular! The burrito, lord have mercy, had two cheeses melted on top and was filled with shrimp, fish, and rice. It was mind-boggling; each bite felt like a taste of the sea. They really outdid themselves with this one, and I can see why it's a favorite. Paired with a Stella Artois, the meal was complete.The young lady named Kaitlyn who served us was very nice and made sure to pass by to check on how we were doing.

I try to go as often as I can, as every dinner is a brand new experience that leaves your pallet wanting more! Chef Allen comes up with so many creative ways to serve these delicious vegetables that are locally grown, that I have yet to experience the same dish twice. Dinner is served outside, family style, surrounded by all of the vendors that are there for the Farmers Market. Chef Allen himself comes out and introduces himself, the theme of the night, and each dish. He is incredibly personable and it adds a whole other layer to this already wonderful experience. The service is fantastic. The servers make sure that your wine glass is never empty, and Keith Green, the general manager of Books & Books, is outstanding. Upon checking in with him, he asks you if you will be drinking red or white and out comes the first pour! I HIGHLY recommend springing for the wine option as it is worth every penny and the wines that Kieth selects are awesome. This event takes place every Monday night at the Books & Books at the Arsht Center and once a month at the Books & Books in Coral Gables. I have been to both and they are great. At the Arsht Center, the parking is free for this event and that is a HUGE plus. I highly recommend you check this out. It is a lovely experience where you enjoy healthy, fresh food with new friends, under the stars, with wine and excellent service! I have dragged many friends with me to this event and every single one of them has come back for more!

Tables are set up next to the farmers market. I opted for a glass of rose and it was really good (and I'm not a wine drinker). The plates came out at a good pace. Everything was really good and tasty. I tasted some new things (e.g. fennel, roasted olives...). I wouldn't mind eating here again, but it was not mind blowing either. It's outside dining so if there's no breeze then it must be very hot sitting there. if you love the better things in life and are a vegetarian then this is definitely the spot for you! It is very different for Miami! I'm sure there's nothing like this around.

The paella de pollo y verduras wasn't great either. It was a bit dry. The only thing that we liked about this restaurant was the location. If I return, I'll order something else.
