As a vegetarian who hates cheese, it is rare for me to be able to order anything off a menu--extremely rare. And the food truck menus are generally no exception, except in the case of Seabirds! This heavenly restaurant on wheels is all vegan, all the time. Their menu changes every day and only features a few items, but rest assured you will never find an ounce of meat or cheese in any dish. Fantastic right??
Needless to say, trying Seabirds has been on my list of things to do for quite some time, and today I finally got the chance when I visited the Farmer's Market at the Great Park. My veggie friend and I perused the quaint fruit stands, sampled pita from the overly friendly hummus stand man and finally arrived at the food truck arena. From Seabirds' chalk board menu we selected the California Burrito and the Beer Battered Avocado Tacos--opting to share so we could both try each. We took our food over to the picnic area, packed with families and couples enjoying some live music by a rockin' band--complete with a trombone, trumpet and sax!
As we sang along to "Sweet Caroline" we savored every last bite of our much-awaited meal. We both decided the California Burrito took the prize for the day. It had french fries (weird right?), BBQ seasoned "carne asada," guacamole and vegan sour cream; and it was GREAT. The avocado tacos were noteworthy as well--the fried avocado and the signature Seabirds sauce were the best ingredients for sure.
It was a vegan recipe for a perfect sunday lunch :)
I wonder what the French think of the food truck craze...??
Peace!
