    Tacos al pastor
    Frances T.

    My husband use to leave in México City and we are always looking for the best and mos authentic Tacos al Pastor in Orlando and by now ,this are the closest ones. Is a shame that they are only open on weekends but they are a most if you are looking for Mexican Tacos and good prices..

    The first Mexican food truck I've sampled in Orlando, El Sabor De La Vida Tacos loosely translates to The Spice of Life Tacos! This is the real deal when it comes to no frills, authentic Mexican food. The menu is simple. Tacos, Hearty Tacos, Quesadillas, Enchiladas, Gorditas and Guaraches. You have a choice of steak, marinated pork, roast pork, sausage, chicken and beef tongue to stuff your taco with. If you want a Hearty Taco, they will gladly throw in some Choriso (sausage) with your meat of choice. Thus doubling the size of your taco, pow! I went ahead with 4 Tacos (marinated pork, roast pork and steak), a steak Gordita and a chicken Guarache. Sadly, a lot of Mexican restaurants are surprisingly bland. This place? The tacos burst with flavor. I don't know what they marinate their meat in, but the spices they use will make your tongue dance. Your body will surely follow. Juuuuust enough heat to know its there while maintaining a savory after taste. To me, the Gordita was the same as a Taco, except it the ingredients were placed inside a pocket like shell. The Guarache, (meaning sandal for it's shape) is an oval shaped, deep fried masa flatbread, then topped with lettuce, onion, copious amounts of your choice of meat and my favorite part, Queso Fresco. The masa gives the dish more of a heavier bite then your typical tortilla and the small crumbly, cheese curds of Queso Fresco carry a slighly acidic tang. Which reminds me of a mild Feta cheese. Delicious. Your meal comes with Limes, Radish, homemade Red Salasa and Salsa Verde. Salse Verde being the slightly more spicy of the sauces. They're only open on the weekends from Friday through Sunday night. A bit out of the way on West Colonial, but worth the trip. Arriba!! Andale, andale!!

    Awesome tacos!!! Consistently good every time we come. Don't let the truck in the parking lot fool you. This one is worth a try.

    Last Friday, I stopped by at The Hourglass Brewery in Longwood after hearing that the Eclectic…read moreKitchen food truck would be there for a while. I'd been meaning to check out the truck for some time but hadn't until last week. It was worth the wait! The truck's menu is extensive and took me a few minutes to dissect, but I ultimately went with my gut feeling and decided upon the butternut squash with curry sauce (I'd read Marvin M.'s review prior to going to the truck and trusted his opinion on this menu item; he was right ... it was AMAZING!) and the bacon & chocolate bread with raspberry Chambord sauce. That also was, uh, AMAZING. My only regret is that I ordered the small-sized squash. After finishing it, I immediately craved more. Faith F., you are very fortunate to have had a full order! I'm extremely envious. This squash was so good that I'm pretty sure I'd go out of my way to obtain a full order. The bacon & chocolate bread was a big draw for me. I'd heard about it on the truck's Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Eclectic-kitchen/192234084170293?fref=ts) and wanted to go to the truck for that alone prior to discovering Marvin raving about the squash. (I then had at least two reasons to go.) The bread, by itself, is outstanding, but it's even better with that Chambord sauce. It was delicious. I can't wait to have it again. I highly recommend this truck to any food truck fans - you're in for a treat! I'm not sure when anyone will get to have any of this truck's food again, though ... according to the Facebook page, it may be away for 6+ weeks. I'm not sure why, but I can't wait until its return and I'm praying that its hiatus doesn't become permanent.

Being new to the circuit I have met some wonderful people and eaten some delicious food at many food trucks. I follow my favorite food trucks on Twitter and find them in a variety of outdoor events. One that I follow religiously is Eclectic Kitchen Chef T is cookin' it up and making it happen each time.The sweetest woman I have ever met. Actually, when I am alone and buying food from other trucks, I go with Chef T and share my food with her. She is a huge foodie and enjoys all types of dishes like I do. The food at Eclectic Kitchen is delicious and like something I have never had before. Her menu changes, but this is a menu she had for one of the Food Truck Bazaars in Orlando. (@Foodtruckbazaar). I was lucky enough to be joined by @kokocooks and @xobejm on this evening. My two favorite Food Truck companions. We started with the Shrimp and Corn fritters. Drizzled with sweet curry remoulade. The order starts with 4 fritters. They looked so good that I ate one immediately and only took a picture of three fritters. Next dish was the Coq Au Vin and Spatzle. Braised chicken in red and white wines, fresh herbs, mushroom, sautéed homemade German style egg noodles. This dish was out of this world. Very tasty. Next up, The Vegetarian Butternut Squash Gnocchi. Homemade Gnocchi sautéed in curry sauce, fried leeks to garnish. One word: AMAZING! This dish was hard to share as I wanted it all for myself. When I first ate at Eclectic Kitchen this was my first dish. Many many months later it is still one of my favorites. We ended the day with the Fried Bananas. In wonton wrappers drizzled with local honey and toasted sesame seeds to sprinkle. @kokocooks, @xobejm, and I were super stuffed with these dishes. We started and ended our day there. Very much worth trying. Chef T will always greet you with a smile. Also, important to note that all her serving dishes are "compostable byproducts of sugar cane and wheatgrass from World Centric".

I had been craving fresas con crema for the longest, and I ended up getting them almost every night that weekend. My favorite was the Fresas con Crema Raffaello. I will say, though, it can get pricey, so don't expect to spend just a few bucks. The fresas con crema alone were over $18 lol. The service really depends on which truck you visit, but for the most part everyone has been friendly. The atmosphere is super chill, there's plenty of seating, and they have trash bins throughout the area. It's mostly clean, although there are a few spots that smell like straight-up trash. They also have free parking behind Denny's and paid parking right next to the food trucks. Save yourself the $6-$10 and park behind Denny's, you can put that money toward a drink instead! I seriously love this place and will always make room for it in my itinerary whenever I'm in Orlando. The fact that they're open until 2 a.m. is just another bonus!
