The Verdict: 
I have been asked what my favourite cart is and I often answer "It depends on what you're in the mood for".  I would say that almost all of the trucks that I have tried have really great food.  I would have to say that this cart is my favourite to date!

A new player on the scene - just opened Friday, September 9 - Le Tigre has an Asian almost offering that I haven't found in any other truck.  

The Kick Ass rice is a rice bowl with a soft poached egg and pork belly on top.  The combination of hot chilis and cilantro that finish this rice bowl was perfect with the toppings and made me dream about the combination all weekend!  My only complaint would be that the egg was almost medium poached, however that's how I like to eat my eggs so to me it was still delicious.

The sides of Beet Fries, Special Salad and Finger Chicken were all very tasty.  The Special Salad was a warm Brussels sprout salad with Asian flavourings.
