It's funny this truck is called Eat on Monday bc I only ever eat this on a Thursday hahahah. We…read morehave a rotating schedule of trucks that come to my office every Thursday so I've had the opportunity to try this particular truck quite a few times. The UFC is consistently my favorite choice there. I've tried their other food but every time I order something else, I tell myself it just doesn't live up to the UFC. Their fried chicken sandwich is perfectly crispy, decently sized (I always food coma afterwards), is quick to arrive after ordering, and comes with a bag of Hawaiian kettle chips. Love when this truck comes to the office because I know the food is always good and I never have to wait long.

Eat On Monday started doing pop up dinner options. This past wknd, we saw that they were doing Garlic Shrimp Hawaiian style and a Curry Tonkatsu plate as well as offering up roscoes ice cream tacos. We got 4 Garlic Shrimp orders and 1 Curry Tonkatsu and 4 ice cream tacos to try. The Curry Tonkatsu was bomb. The Japanese influence Curry was good with the rice and a perfect pairing to the crispy tonkatsu cutlet. I wished I had ordered more servings of this over the Garlic shrimp. The Garlic Shrimp was good but a tad too dry. We needed a garlic sauce to compliment the garlic rice. There was a bit too much raw chopped garlic mixed vs sautéed chopped garlic. Hopefully they make the adjustment. Kids loved the roscoes ice cream tacos for $5 each. We wanted more of the Youngsters (cookies and cream) but it only allowed us to order 1 as it was probably the last one in stock. If you aren't sure what to have for dinner, this was an option for Fri/Sat for us. I think they offer it up via doordash etc as well. They also debated a Thursday night addition when I was picking up our food. Try them out. Good portions.

One look and one smell at the nicely charred meats and I was in line and ready to order. My boyfriend and I ordered a pork and chicken rice plate, he had wanted to get the beef and pork, but they were already sold out of beef. Both the pork and chicken were super delicious, chicken was very tender, and pork was extremely flavorful. Portions were also pretty large, we were both very hungry and finishing the chicken took some work. They're cash, Zelle, and Venmo only, but it was easy to pay any of those ways.

They were grilling the steaks which is what initially drew me to their stall.

Very flavorful and filling. We ate half on a nearby bench and took the rest home. Food is packed in Togo containers which make it easier to carry. They also offer rice plates and salad bowls, which I want to come back and try!

I can only review our takeout pad Thai order. Sadly, my wife didn't like it because it's missing…read morethe sweet/tangy flavor. I actually liked it because this is a different take on pad Thai. It's more of a watered down pad Thai. However it's full of shrimp, egg and tofu. In my opinion it's a hybrid of typical pad Thai and chow mein. It's certainly not the best pad Thai, so why the good rating? + Large shrimps + Big enough portion for 2 + Free brownie was a nice surprise - Free green tea was overly sweet, but thanks for the unexpected surprise I have a suggestion for this establishment. Add more flavor to their pad Thai. Sure it's a different take, but we still want some familiarity. Although I'm ok with it, I see where my wife is coming from.

It's located in one of those shared-kitchen facilities, in an industrial park in the north part of Santa Clara. Unlike some of the other tenants, you don't get your food from Jing Jing out of a locker. Instead, phone them when you get in, or if there's somebody staffing the counter, they'll go and tell the kitchen you've arrived. Soon, your food - piping hot, in broad plastic containers, not those traditional paper bucket things - will be brought out to the counter in a plastic bag, and you can pay in their portable credit card reader. The food is still Jing Jing delicious, though packed up in a plastic container and taking it home makes it come out not quite the same as it did on a platter in the restaurant. I was pretty happy with this, and the opportunity to have again their fantastic shrimp dishes - braised shrimp and kung pao are my favorites - makes me happy.

From the Dishcrawl website: _____________________…read moreFoie Finale Dinner Dishes from the 2 winning chefs will be prepared for a battle of the best! Josiah from Sent Sovi and Cocoy Ventura (previously of French Laundry) have risen above and won the foie battle. Join us in an underground setting in Los Gatos for an eclectic night and flavors from these two chefs. _____________________ OOOH! The foie finale dinner prepared by "chefs from San Jose to San Francisco, to Half Moon Bay" for the Silicon Valley Foie Battle?!?! My expectations were sky high! I'd been to one of the Dishcrawl Foie Gras dinners before and it blew my mind! I wanted to get my foie gras fix before the stupid ban in July! Plus, I thought it would be a fun way to celebrate Chris C's bday so I bought tickets for us for $150 each plus a $16 processing fee. The day before the dinner I received a couple of emails that revealed the location and the menu. My first thought was, hmmm...an apartment?!? I was hoping it was at a nice restaurant, or any restaurant but, whatever. My next thought was, we can't purchase wine pairings at the dinner??? Kinda lame but I was excited about dinner. No ice bucket for our champagne?? OK, they said there was a fridge but it was full. I was so stoked but when we got there I didn't see any professional chefs! No Josia from Sent Sovi and no Cocoy Ventura of French Laundry. My heart sank with disappointment thinking about the freakin' FALSE ADVERTISEMENT that sucked me in to pay $316 for dinner for 2! All eight dishes were prepared by Tracy, the Dishcrawl CEO, who has a background in marketing. She's not even a chef! GAHHHD, that sucks! What's even worse is that as she served the dishes she said (these are exact quotes from that evening): "I've never tried this before." How can you make something and never try it?!?! "Oh, I didn't make the sauce vert..." for the foie gras tacos, even though it was on the menu. "I didn't make the pea gastrique" for the foie gras & peas even though it's on the menu. That dish was lame! It was a slice of raw, unseasoned foie on a slice of baguette with 1/2 of a pea pod on the side. "I was gonna do it this way but it just didn't happen..." And giggles. Those comments sucked the life out of me! Eleven of us paid $158 and you couldn't deliver what was on the menu?!?! COME ON! At least pretend they're epic dishes so I might forget that I paid $300+. I'm not gonna list all 8 courses but I will say there were two dishes that were very good. I loved the first course of Foie Gras Panna Cotta served in a cute little jar. The candied sage and the garlic blossom added a surprising kick to the subtle sweetness of the panna cotta. That garlic flower actually tasted like garlic! And it was great with the panna cotta! My favorite was the third course of Foie Gras Benedict because it was seared perfectly, sweetened with maple, and the bacon on top was crunchy-salty goodness. It was so good that the birthday boy had another one. The other 6 dishes were underwhelming and they're not even worth mentioning. Just check out the pics. I wanna cry when I look at those pics. OK, you talked me into it, I'll mention a few bad ones.... Here's the lowlights: The foie gras & jelly sandwich was particularly lame. Apricot jam on white bread with frozen, grated foie on top. I couldn't even taste the foie gras, what the hell was that? And the last 2 courses were both desserts with snickerdoodle? Where's my foie? And why are you so unimaginative that you have 2 snickerdoodle desserts? Is it a snickerdoodle dishcrawl? I paid $20 for each course and this is what I get? If you want to experiment and have some friends over, this is the kind of dinner party you might throw for fun. But to charge $158 per head? This is ridiculous. I've been having friends over to experimental dinners at my place for FREE! I did enjoy chatting with the other 9 people I met that night, even though I was so bummed about the dinner. There was also a reporter and a photographer from The Daily Telegraph and a reporter from French TV 2. It was cool to be interviewed but then I was kind of annoyed every time the camera and the video camera were so close to my face while I ate. Damn, I wish I had my hair and make up done! Why didn't Dishcrawl mention that there would be reporters there before I bought tickets??? BEWARE of false advertising on the Dishcrawl website! The location and menu are not revealed until after you pay so be careful! After that experience I was totally turned off to Dishcrawl! Besides, why do I have to buy tickets from Dishcrawl to try food at a restaurant? Why not just skip the Dishcrawl and go to the restaurant to try their food? If you're lazy, and don't want to plan your own food adventure, you can pay these guys to do it for you. I'll admit it was fun to try once, a sit down dinner in a restaurant, cooked by a professional chef. But from now on I will not be signing up for anymore Dishcrawls!

We went online, bought our tickets, and the next morning we were told where to meet. This is a unique concept for sampling foods we would probably not otherwise think about going into. Our crawl consisted of two Chinese food places, a dessert place, and an 'after dessert place'. We started at the one place, ate our dishes, and before we could even finish our drinks.. on to the next place! The arrangement of the night's festivities kept things fresh and lively... will even appeal to your (inner) ADD side! YAY!! New food and new friends to share your experience with? COUNT ME IN! The food was good and our company was even better. Everyone was in eager spirits to try new foods and our new friends kept it amusing and fun. I'll definitely be peepin' out more Dishcrawls!

We let A&C know ahead of time, and they more than accommodated us. A&C provided an incredible catering service for our recent family gathering. The food was absolutely stellar, the value was fantastic, and our family could not stop raving about the delicious meal. This is a five-star experience from start to finish! We ordered a number of items for our party, and each dish was a knockout: - Homemade Mac n Cheese: Perfectly creamy and comforting, it was a huge hit with everyone. - Caesar Salad: This was no ordinary salad. The mix of fresh kale, juicy tomatoes, and perfectly crispy potatoes was a refreshing and modern twist on a classic. - Veggie Quiche (spinach and artichoke): Flaky, rich, and full of flavor. The spinach and artichoke filling was amazing. - Grilled Chicken: The chicken was cooked to perfection--moist, flavorful, and a great addition to the mains. - BLT Bites: A creative and delicious appetizer that disappeared almost as soon as it hit the table. The desserts were the perfect sweet ending: - Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies: These cookies were seriously addictive--chewy, rich, and full of toffee and chocolate. - Berry Fruit Platter: A beautifully arranged platter of fresh, ripe berries was a light and refreshing option. As for beverage, we had peach green tea and lemonade. Beyond the incredible food, the value for the quality was excellent. Elliot and Faye were super friendly, and the delivery was on time and professionally handled. Amour & Caffection is officially our new go-to for (small group) catering. You won't be disappointed!

When I went I didn't see any designated parking for the cafe specifically, so parking anywhere in the office lots should work. We went on a Sunday afternoon and there was about a 15-minute wait to order. The main menu is listed in the center of the cafe, but when we approached the window to order, we saw the seasonal menu and changed our drink selection. Initially, I had wanted to try the cold brew but saw that it was $8 and was about the same price as some of the lattes. I ultimately chose the Bello Banana because I was intrigued by the coconut vanilla cream top. A lot of other banana lattes lean too artificial and taffy-like for my taste, but the banana and coconut flavors were both light and natural here. The coffee flavor was smooth but seemed a bit diluted. A lot of visitors sit down with their drinks to read or work at the shaded seating around the cafe. There is a mini golfing area and bocce ball court as well. Overall, this is nice coffee spot to catch up with friends. The atmosphere was a bit too corporate for my liking, but I appreciated that there was shade and ample seating to sit and enjoy our drinks.
