Nothing is splashing into the Seattle foodie scene this summer quite like the city’s first food truck outside a pop-up inside street food restaurant, Nacho Po’ Boy.
“Our menu is disrupting the pop-up sit-down inside street food scene by diverting people back outside to eat sit-down quality food standing-up at sit-down pop-up prices,” said the Capitol Hill food truck’s chef, Logan Wayles, who’s been serving endless lines of customers on the daily.
Self-proclaimed food aficionado Kelly Bell said she couldn’t believe her luck while standing in a three-mile-long line for a pop-up’s sriracha pulled pork crispy kale wrap puff pastry: An even newer street food option had pulled up just outside the two-day-a-week happy-hour pop-up inside her favorite street food spot. She rushed over immediately.
She said the truck’s Korean-Italian-Cajun fusion dishes like alligator kimchi risotto and bibimbap bruschetta with fried oysters and soju-marinated boudin were “to-die-for.”
“Food just tastes better when you’re eating it standing up in the summer heat out of a compostable clamshell box,” said Bell. “Trust me: I will literally pay anything to savor that gastronomically adventurous, Anthony-Bourdain-Parts-Unknown vibe while only staying in the parts of the city I know.”
