Honest Tom’s Taco Shop: A Food Truck Like No Other
Posted by Samantha Lazar on August 31, 2009
Honest Tom’s is a unique food truck for two reasons: firstly, the food is AWESOME. There’s not a bad thing on the menu. And that leads us to the second reason: the menu is SHORT! There are only about 3 things on it, but you won’t mind – it would be hard to ever get tired of food so delicious.
The fare is Mexican (tacos – what a shocker!), and the proprietor is true to his name: such a nice, down-to-earth, honest guy. The fish, meat, veggie, and sweet potato tacos are all fabulous (as the occasionally long lunchtime lines can attest), and all the toppings are as fresh as can be. There’s also a wide selection of hot sauces to choose from. But Honest Tom’s tacos aren’t just for lunch: come by in the morning for fresh coffee and breakfast tacos, filled with steaming fried eggs.
The truck parks on the Drexel campus at 33rd and Arch during the week, and mixes it up on Saturdays, parking in Clark Park to serve its quality fare to a more westerly crowd. If you’re hoping for breakfast on a Saturday morning, make sure to swing by early before they’re all cleaned out!
