After coming across Linda's Catering for the very first time, I'd be lying if I said they got me…read moreall that excited. Not that appearances are everything (and not to be mean), but if I ran into these guys at an Off The Grid event or Spark Social, I'd probably walk right by without even giving them a second thought. However, after passing by them numerous times at the same spot by 4th on Townsend? Sure, I was willing to give them a shot! If there was ever a mom-and-pop food truck, Linda's Catering would definitely be it. While not as old school as those OG taco trucks and "roach coaches", these guys certainly aren't as modern or fancy as the likes of KoJa Kitchen with their LCD menu screens. However, their menu of sushi burritos, ramen, and rice plates (along with some random sides) is still interesting enough, even if they don't look all that great in the photo print outs. -- CHICKEN KAZU (KATSU) CURRY RICE...$9 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/lindas-catering-san-francisco?select=tdjyzFVsUhuHIY2OVW86xg) While it may have looked the part, this was actually pretty underwhelming overall. As generous as they were with the katsu, it was both overcooked and not hot, amazingly enough (cooked ahead of time?). What's more, the curry was very "meh" - okay consistency, bland in flavor. -- CHICKEN KAZU (KATSU) SUSHI BURRITO...$10 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/lindas-catering-san-francisco?select=JzbFHZyewfTOh7mxzNP2Yw) I returned one more time to try this on my buddy's recommendation and, aside from its poor assembly, this wasn't too shabby! Not only was the roll pretty hefty, but the katsu was much better in this case (steamed in the roll?) and the spicy aioli sauce they used added a nice kick. Even though their kazu/katsu burrito is actually pretty good, I'd be hard pressed to give Linda's Catering anything more than three stars. Along with my disappointing curry rice dish, service here isn't all that quick (unlike most other food trucks). Despite ordering the exact same thing, it took an extra 5-10 mins for our second burrito to come out, on top of the 10-15 mins the first one took. Not a big deal for something as good as a Senor Sisig burrito, but much less so in this case.

Stumbled across Linda's Catering when looking online for asian options and went to go try out her ramen. Straight off the truck, the miso ramen was really amazing and a decent portion for lunch or dinner. I also tried her spicy tuna burrito, which came highly recommended and that was tasty too. Basically it's a ginormous maki roll. After deciding to have Linda be one of our caters for the wedding reception, it was extremely pleasant and easy to work with her. She runs a small business and was more than willing to accommodate us anyway she could help out. Her prices were very reasonable and for what our guests got, it was definitely worth it! Our guests loved the ramen and thought it was very fun and it provided just the right thing on a cooler outdoor evening reception. We ended up getting half portions to not overwhelm everyone with all our different food truck foods and it worked out great. I cannot say how nice Linda was or how hard she worked to make our wedding special. She was always all smiles and it was so kind that she was really happy to be part of the whole wedding and wished us well. If you're around Townsend St. or are looking to add something fun to your event, drop on by Linda's Catering truck and have some ramen!

Did an impromptu swing by Presidio Twilight on Thursday, August 23rd around 8:45pm. We drove here…read moreand easily found street parking. Since it was nearing closing time, our party of four asked if someone was willing to share their firepit. We brought two chairs and pulled up a double lounge type chair for our party of four. We ended up getting a Rock & Rye Toddy: george dickel & bulleit whiskey, citrus, rock candy syrup, horehound, & spices x3. I believe the total was $36, so I guess the drinks were $12 each. It was a cold night, so the hot drink helped. Though I didn't really care for the cocktail. It was too sweet. I could have definitely gone without the rock candy syrup. I love bonfires, so I like the vibe of this event. It's fun just sitting around a campfire talking and drinking. My kind of laid back night. Not sure when this event closes, but they were putting out the fires about 30 mins in, so we didn't have much time here. Definitely would try to come earlier next time. A fun chill Thursday.

Finishing a hike through the Presidio I landed at Presidio Twilight just in time for drinks,…read moredinner, fire pits, live music, and open-air cabanas. I've been known to say that the whole food truck craze jumped the shark a while ago and that Off The Grid did as well, when their brand started appearing in suburban strip mall parking lots, but when either are done in unique fashion the whole thing is something I heartily endorse. Presidio Twilight falls into that category. With only two Presidio Twilight events left in 2016 (September 29, October 6; 5 - 9 p.m.) I'd recommend you clear your Thursday evening calendar, call your friends, and bundle up as if headed for the old Candlestick Park. Then head on over to the Presidio's main lawn. The Adirondack chairs, fire pits, and cabanas are first come-first served and they get spoken for quickly. You used to be able to reserve these items but that's no longer the case as the powers that be want people to mingle. I like this change and hope that people are actually mingling, not hoarding. I didn't try to cadge a spot inside anyone's cabana but I like the idea that someone thinks we ought to do just that. As I stood at a communal table with a mixed drink, a Korean rice bowl, and my freezing dog I met a couple of Texans in town for a Cal football game. I often see things through the eyes of the perpetual SF tourist that I pretend to be but these were actual tourists who reported that they like to do unusual things, things that other tourists don't. For a good half hour I was proud of Texans. The Presidio gets icy cold at this time of day and year which is likely the reason why Presidio Twilight isn't a year-round thing (it started up in May). As you stand in this beautiful, historic spot consuming good food and drink it doesn't feel like you're being gouged for the food truck prices you just paid. It feels like you're enjoying a unique San Francisco experience. From your perch you can see the bay and before nightfall, spot a Crissy Field kiteboarder or two. Some experiences are priceless. You won't find anything like this in Texas let alone anywhere else and for that reason, you should make it a priority.

The steak shawarma is really my favorite but chicken shawarma and their Doner Kabob are also fantastic, especially served with their turmeric rice or the fresh arugula salad.

This is a food truck gathering that happens on weekdays at lunchtime, which is extremely convenient…read morefor all the office workers in the area. I like that there are six trucks to choose from and the trucks are usually different. There are a few trucks that seem to be here more often than others such as the Roadside Rotisserie (roasted chicken) or Limon (Peruvian). You can find the daily list of trucks at https://trucks.foodeaze.net/ The food trucks are varied enough that there's a bit of something for everyone. I usually prefer asian cuisine and Foodeaze usually has 2-3 food trucks serving Asian food. The clearing in between the trucks is small and not a great place to eat. Instead, I usually take my meal across the road to sit in the courtyard. There's plenty of outdoor seating there!

The food was delivered before the scheduled lunch time, which was really important since punctuality was an absolute big plus and a must for catering businesses. And the meals were packaged pretty nicely in wide containers, allowing a lot to fit into each one. I got the Soba Noodle Salad topped with Grilled Salmon in Hoisin Sauce, and I absolutely loved it. First of all, there was a total of four compartments on my food container. Two of them were each packed with cold soba noodle salad and a thick fillet of grilled salmon; with a total of two fillets, it was a seriously generous portion of the protein. Not to mention the noodles were absolutely delicious too; they were served on a bed of veggies with a side of dipping sauce for the noodles. The third compartment was full of assorted fresh fruits, which I appreciated. And in the fourth one there were two baguette slices, a mini cookie and a piece of brownie. Overall, it was super satisfying, and I really thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Lots of my coworkers were happy too with the food.
