Fresh Young Coconut
The Verdict:
I've been to this cart twice now and tried two different dishes.
If you like Thai curry then the Green curry served by this cart will hit the spot. Served over a bed of white rice, this green curry is made fresh while you wait. It is not the best curry I have had in Vancouver but it was very delicious and relatively fast.
The Basil and Eggplant also served on a bed of white rice is my favourite of the two dishes. The dish usually comes with pork but LadyK ordered it with Tofu as well. The combination is genius and delicious! The basil and eggplant combination complement each other very well and make you want to eat more.
This cart offers a few substitutions, tofu for meat and brown rice for white rice.
The fresh young coconut is perhaps one of the most delicious and refreshing beverages I've ever tried! To serve this the owners simply chop off the top of the coconut. It comes with a straw and a spoon. Once you finish drinking the coconut water you scrape out the insides and eat them. If you've never had this experience I highly recommend it. Delicious and nutritious! It also comes with a little umbrella so when you walk back into the office with it and get into the elevator everyone wants to know what tropical bar you have just come from.

Favourite Thing(s) About This Truck:
The fresh young coconut is by far my favourite thing about this truck. They are amazingly refreshing on a hot summer day!
I also love the very friendly staff! I love encountering staff who deliver service with a smile. This cart is definitely a great example of good service.
Also if you hit this cart between noon and 1 during the summer you can catch the CBC Nooners. This series of free outdoor concerts is definitely great accompaniment to a delicious lunch.
