I was thrilled when I saw this menu offers vegan options for any item!! I got the Donna and made it vegan, and it was so good. I could tell it was made fresh. The portion was also massive. This could easily be shared between two people and be filling for both. Highly recommend this place any time you're nearby and wanting a delicious hearty meal!

I got the Biscuits + Groovy, which is their basic biscuit dish. It was delicious and left me feeling full for $11. I like how they can make everything vegan or vegetarian upon request. They have a sign that says no water cups, which made me sad even though I had brought my own water anyways. Charging $1.50 for bottled water that probably cost a few cents in bulk seems steep, but I guess food trucks aren't expected to provide free water, so I will let it slide.

Small's knows how to make a damn good pizza. Thin, perfectly crispy, and slightly chewy. The pad kra pow pizza was just alright to me. It's a bit dry and too salty for my taste, maybe the rice soaks up the saltiness better than pizza dough. It's a more one dimensional flavor with a hint of fish sauce. The osso bucco was what I was looking more forward to. It didn't disappoint. The beef was fork tender and barely required any chewing at all. The curry was coconuty and lemongrass forward which is my favorite! The roti that came with this dish is the best roti I've ever had in my entire life. In a world full of various flat breads, I've usually thought roti doesn't compare to some of the other options, but I kid you not, my jaw dropped ripping into this roti. So flaky and buttery!! Must get for every table The che bap honey butter toast is a novel fusion dish compared to what's typically done. I was thoroughly impressed. They captured the essence of Che bap perfectly. The toasted coconut added a perfect crunch to each bite. It took a while to come out as a heads up. It was about $90 with tip and tax for 2, so a tad expensive, but overall done well.

I checked this place out due to a special they were having. I can't recall the Vietnamese name but…read moreit's a fried rice cake and egg dish! I really liked it but I do wish the rice cake was crispier--we did pre order and I'm not sure if that impacted the texture. My husband got the broken rice dish which I thought was good but he prefers a traditional, non-rib style. This place is a big hidden in Springdale General and occupies a small corner. I hadn't been in this area for a hot minute but it's developed into quite a bustling food court with other small businesses to check out around the area. Their menu is small but follow on Instagram for any special dishes!

You could find a wonderful selection of food & drinks vendors, like Moi Vietnamese grill. Mom & Pops popsicles. Connor's creamery. Garbo's. Ding tea. Citrus refreshments. Weh? Asian fusion. Shoyu Sugar is Hawaiian grill and a favorite amongst visitors. Boba bites and tea, had their very first event and are in the process of opening their shop soon. A business to be continued, as I love their teas! Dash realty was there too with a bean bag toss, giving out balloons and candy. Cutco with their knives. Ten thousand villages had some beautiful fair trade goodies. All vendors had quite a long line. Moi's customers faced a long time in the burning Sun, but Asians love food! Weh? Sold out within 2 hours! The DJ's supplied great vibes inside the VUKA building, which is modern, spacious, air-conditioned, a great place for events. It hosted the space for a Limbo race, and crafting paper fans by 'open eyes beyond border' for the Lil' ones. The event would take place all day, and it is a hot day. A great event! The dragon dance was very much entertaining. People had their dollar bills ready! Oh, how we love to feed the dragon to get luck and prosperity! Yes, yes, Chinese dragons are believed to have control over water, rain, hurricanes and floods. They also represent power, strength and good luck. The Chinese believe that performing the dragon dance during festivals and celebrations drives away evil spirits and ushers in good luck and blessings for the community.

I was invited…read morehere for a Yelp function and got to sample a number of delicacies on offer from the resident trucks. Of special note is the very good blueberry lemonade from Conscious Cravings, as well as a to-die-for selection of goat cheese from the Chivata Goat Cheese Truck. (Seriously, go check out their trailer and pick up one of their sandwiches, your tummy will thank you.) Pros: Outdoor and *indoor* seating - useful when it rains or bakes in Austin, which it can. Reasonable selection of food trucks, you'll find something to try. Bathroom facilities are fine and not port-a-potties. Cons: Some of the trucks hold odd hours on the weekend. Parking is at a premium, with about a dozen spots and 2 handicapped spots. You can find parking on the side streets but be careful crossing 1st Street as the traffic zooms by at light speed! All in all, this location is well worth a visit!

Waah. Development…read moreand gentrification are destroying the great food truck courts of First Street. Many of the finest ones have either closed or are draining out. What's the issue? Landlords want the land to build new high density apartment buildings. * * * Double Waah. The Bouldin Creek Food Park is still around. Bouldin Creek Food Park is probably the worst of the traditional First Street food courts. It is the northernmost of the First Street food courts - the one nearest to Palmer Auditorium and downtown. It is on a teeny tiny strip of land between First Street itself and the gulch of East Bouldin Creek. The lot is too narrow and oddly shaped to permit high density development. So the landlords are going to leave this place alone. Just as there is precious little room for development, There is also precious little room for the food trucks and the parking. So simply from lack of space, the customers sit practically on First Street itself. The eating tables get the full blast of First Street traffic. The eaters get the noise and the carbon monoxide. They also get the uncompromising blast of the Austin summer sun There is one exception to the rule. If you look carefully, you will find exactly one table in the back that is rustic, quiet and pretty. The East Bouldin Creek Gulch runs there. The gulch has lots of shade and really nice rock cliffs. Picnic heaven? No such luck. The back is where they dump the detritus and spare junk from the food trucks. The back has pallets, framing and extra plastic bottles the carts don't have room for. You are in a eating in a trash pile, a shady trash pile but still a trash pile. * * * Life gets more interesting if you have to go to the bathroom. The bathroom literally is a porta-potty. To be fair, they empty it frequently, so it is not too gross. However, there is no running water to wash your hands after you do your business. Not being able to wash your hands is not great if you intend to eat food afterwards. * * * If the food trucks were absolutely marvelous, one might tolerate the bad location and set-up. The trucks they have are run of the mill. Dawa is better than run of the mill. The rest are ho hum. All of these trucks would be more pleasant in a nicer location. Mueller for example would be a huge promotion for any of them. If you have a food truck you adore, and Bouldin Creek is where it happens to be, all power to you. Enjoy your meal. Enjoy watching the cars drive by. Be sure to go to the bathroom before you leave the house.

Everything seemed to be made in house with exception of the bread. The sauce was the big winner, tangy and full of spice. Meatballs were a great blend as well. Chicken parm, chefs kiss. Try it out!

I barely tasted the peanut butter, and overall, it reminded me more of a less flavorful açai bowl with dark chocolate. I think people with a serious sweet tooth would enjoy it, but I've had better smoothie bowls elsewhere and probably wouldn't go out of my way to get this one again. Overall, Shake Smart is a convenient and healthy option, especially for UT students, but the PB&A Blended Bowl itself didn't stand out enough for me to make it a regular order.
