Food Truck Lunch: The Bistro Truck

I've been to the Bistro Truck 3 times. I had (in order) the chicken tajine platter, merguez (lamb and veal) platter and the lamb burger with fries. All solid food. I liked the chicken tajine platter best but the lamb burger was a close second. The merguez platter was good but the lamb and veal were in sausage form which is not my favorite medium. The platters come with a small amount of fries and mixed greens.

The real reason I keep going back to the Bistro Truck is not for their food, it's not for their fries or their fresh tea. In fact, the fresh Moroccan mint was like drinking tooth paste (yech!). The real reason I go there is for their hot sauce. You heard me. The hot sauce that comes in the tiny plastic condiment container. It's salty. It's spicy. It's awesome. I'd eat it on cardboard. It's that good. I asked for extra the third time around because I can't get enough of it. I've used it like ketchup for my fries and I've mixed it with my rice (or couscous, I can't remember which) and it is equally fantastic on both. I want to know what it is so I can make it.

And then I found $5.
