10February 6th, 2011figueroa produce, stores, vegan eventsvegans, mark your calendars! this tuesday february 8th marks the launch of HPK din din a go go, a weekly food truck dinner feast at figueroa produce.
each week, the trucks will gather in the store’s parking lot and sling loads of their usual tasty grub as well as special menu item using a figueroa produce ingredient. (i think this week’s ingredient is kale.) the organizers are going out of their way to ensure that the event is highly vegan-friendly, so let’s go show them some support and eat a lot of good food in the process. on tuesday, it’s gonna be all trucks i haven’t tried yet, so i’m super excited. here’s a sneak peek at some of the trucks and the vegan options they’ll be offering…

I don’t make it to Highland Park very often since I’m normally on the 2 going somewhere but this would be a good time to drop by and pick up some Fry’s.

Komodo has things to offer also. We have soi tacos, garlic fries and truffle fries in our truck. In our restaurant we also offer salads.

This is very exciting and tasty. But vegan taco trucks is a sign that Highland Park is gentrifying.
