Food Truck

I’ve been working at Lebuh Pasar area for the past 11 years and I must say, I don’t know where to eat anymore.

The emergence of food trucks this year in front of HSBC Bank (headquarters) at Lebuh Ampang, gave me happiness as I know where to get fast and reasonable food.

Here are the food trucks that are there every day during my lunchtime:-

Mat Rock Nasi Kunyit

Menu and the price

This was the 1^st food truck that appeared in front of HSBC. This truck sells Nasi Kunyit Ayam (Chicken), Daging (Beef), Sotong (Squids) and Udang (Prawn). So far, I’ve only tried Nasi Kunyit Ayam and it’s delicious. The rice comes with the meat you order, vegetables (carrots, long beans and onions) and black kicap (thick soya sauce) on top of it. If you want additional fried egg, just add on RM1.00 for it. Sambal (spicy chili paste) is optional. As for some people, they may find that the kunyit meat itself is already spicy, so therefore no additional Sambal. I do recommend you to try the food at this food truck.   

Be prepared for the long queue........

Ayam Kunyit RM5.00

Foodex

Menu and prices by the side of the truck

 

Salad and sandwich fridge

Their packaging

Foodex food truck only arrived in October 2016. This truck is always park nearby Mat Rock. Foodex only sells Western food; i.e. sandwiches, salads, spaghetti and chicken chop. Overall, the portion is reasonable but if you are a big eater, you may find it not sufficient. The price is very reasonable and the taste is good. I do recommend you to try the food at this food truck.

There will be a queue but not as long as Mat Rock Nasi Kunyit

Spaghetti Bolognese with chicken RM8.90, without chicken RM6.90. The sauce is nice but sometimes, watery. Chicken was already pre-cooked so when they put it on top, it's already cold

Spaghetti with mushroom sauce and beef bacon RM6.90 (promotional price),  RM8.90 (original price). The portion for this spaghetti is huge, creamy sauce but at times, can be slight watery. Also,  reasonable portion of beef bacon.  I do recommend this.  

These are the things that come with chicken chop. Choose either black pepper or mushroom sauce

Grilled Chicken chop with black pepper sauce RM8.90. The chicken is juicy and the mashed potato tasted like being made from powder. Overall, I wouldn't complain much as it's not too bad

Hanjuku Tamago & Potato Sandwich RM3.50 . Tasted like ordinary egg sandwich. Nothing special

The packaging for your fresh salad 

Corn Fed Chicken Salad RM6.90. It comes with lettuce, onions, red and green peppers, cherry tomatoes, topped with chicken,  sweet vinegar, thousand island and mayonnaise as dressings. The salad is very fresh and with the mixture of the dressings, it tasted good. I do recommend this salad.

Pak Cu Jambu (guava)

I wouldn’t call this a food truck, more of a motorbike and a table store. Pak Cu used to have a small outlet together with burger store outside Central Market. I was buying from them for a good few years. They disappeared without telling me where they went. After a year or so, they came back and started selling their jambus in front of HSBC. This so called “food motorbike” came to HSBC first, then Mat Rock and Foodex. They are still selling their guavas cheap, 2 sliced guava for RM1.00. I will always order RM2.00 as I won’t get the satisfaction of having RM1.00 guava. The "assam" (prune powder) that goes with the guava tasted very good and I love the "assam" so much. To me, I would say it's the best "assam". Apart from guavas, they also sell Cincau (grass jelly drink), pink and green guava juices.    

Be prepared for the long queue........

Cincau (grass jelly drink) RM1.00 for one

Guava RM2.00 for 4 slices

Looks nice from the top

There is another food truck that sells burgers, sausages, chicken nuggets and fish balls in sticks, fried banana fritter, currypuff and drinks. Honestly, so far I only tried their fried banana fritters and they tasted good. 

No name for this food truck

Fried banana fritters, 5 pieces for RM2.00
