As you've been reading the past few weeks, my office has been bringing us food trucks for lunch. This has been fun for me, since I love to try new things. Sadly, none have been very good.
3-3-3 Truck serves 3 different cuisines, with 3 main ingredients per cuisine, and 3 preparations per main. Thus, 3-3-3. To be more concrete, they offer Korean, Mexican, or Indian food. For Korean, you can pick from short ribs, bbq chicken, or a veggie mushroom tofu mix. The Mexican choices are carne asada, pork chile verde, and chipotle chicken. And finally, for indian, lamb curry, chicken tikka, or paneer tikka. Each of those dishes is available as a taco, burrito, or rice bowl.
The paneer tikka sounded the most promising to me, but on my visit they had a reduced catering menu, rather than the standard menu. Instead, they were offering only a vegetarian or fish taco. This was no problem for me, since, as you may have noticed from my slew of Rubio's reviews, I have a thing for fish tacos.
This was a very simple fish taco.
The fish was super crispy, which was nice, except that it was just way too fried and oily. The fish inside was fairly moist, but was not really the type of fish I like - I think it was rock cod? I greatly prefer pretty much all the fish options at Rubio's, or the nice tilapia at Tropisueño.
It was garnished only with onions and tomatoes, although normally served with their signature "Green Sauce", which is made from fresh avocado, garlic, fresh citrus, and herbs. Since I'm allergic to avocado, I had to skip that part, and there were no other options for me to add anything additional in. The taco really needed some creaminess, even simple sour cream like the lackluster catfish taco from Tacqueria Mana was better than nothing. I'd put this on par with the fish taco at Nick's Crispy Tacos.
The taco shell was a bit dried out, and seemed like it had been sitting out. Flour tortilla only, I generally prefer the additional flavor of a corn shell.
Overall, very boring, and I certainly wouldn't get again.
