After months of hoping to catch the Manila Machine, we finally were able to enjoy yummy food from the first Filipino food truck last Saturday! It was parked at Gigi's Farmers Market in the Americana in Glendale. We showed up for lunch and were excited to try the sliders and dessert.
Just some of the menu :) We were bummed that the ube (purple yam) cupcakes were sold out. Next time!
Mom is interested in what is available.
Love the color combination and design of the truck.
Sarap means tasty. And yes it was tasty!
We ordered two sliders. On the left is the longanisa slider, which is a sweet pork and garlic sausage, topped with caramelized onion, in a pan de sal roll. On the right is the original manila dip shredded chicken adobo and caramelized onions on a pan de sal roll with dipping sauce! Both so tasty, just like home cooking.
And one of my fave desserts, turon, was also available. It is banana wrapped in egg roll skin and deep fried. The Manila Machine tops their turon with caramel sauce, which is such a nice and extra treat.I cannot wait to eat at the Manila Machine again :) Check out their schedule on twitter.
