This was totally unexpected. I was actually en route to the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market when I saw a bunch of food trucks in front of me as part of the Off the Grid collection. Cool - there was no way that I was going to pass this one by!
Filipino food was the last thing that I thought that I would be getting too. But there was something on the menu here that looked particularly interesting: sisig tacos. I love sisig, and I love tacos, so surely must like sisig tacos, right? Little bits of minced pork shoved into tortillas and topped with salsa sounded like a very natural fit, after all.
And the good thing is that it did indeed work, eating these two single-ply tacos with ease. I admittedly won't be getting it again though; the meat was dry and rather crudely cut, and just didn't really taste like the sisig I know. If I had closed my eyes, I might have thought it to be just any other pork taco.
make sure you hit up Shalimar at 532 Jones St. Between Geary and O'Farrell.
ReplyDeleteGet the seekh kebabs (meat - not chicken), the lahori chicken (get the leg) and the lamb chops and some naan. If you want a curry - I'd suggest the Saag Gosht (Spinach meat) along with some piping hot naan.
