Culver City Food Truck Adventure

On Monday night Lisa and I ventured off to Culver City near the Sony Studio lot to check out a new trend here. Food Truck courts. The one in Culver City, The Westside Food Truck Central, is apparently run like a commune and has about 10 trucks. They offer fair from kabobs, sushi, fried chicken, to Indian Food - served by a group with a truck named India Jones (pictured below). With flexible hours, lower start-up costs, and mobility, gourmet food trucks are all the rage here. India Jones is best known for their "Frankie." (pictured above). You can buy one for $4.50 and experience a roti roll up with cilantro tamarind chutney and chopped onion, with an egg wash (they can be ordered with lamb, chicken, beef, shrimp, paneer and mushroom & cheese). If you are looking for something to do, exploring a food truck emporium is definately something worth experiencing at least once.
