I would visit San Antonio just to enjoy this experience.
Rickshaw Stop | Traditional Pakistani Street Food – Fast!
Rated top 10 food truck in USA.:jhanda:
An excerpt from a review by a local food critic Offbeat Eats.
First of all, Rickshaw Stop gets some decent credit just for being a Pakistani place; there just aren’t a lot of those around, particularly in San Antonio. I’m no stranger to Pakistani food (I’m thinking of a particularly nice Pakistani place I went to in Minneapolis on work a few years ago, Pak Zam Zam), and it’s the sort of cuisine I really like: kebabs, naans, bold spices, and the like. In fact, most of the places I’ve been I’d consider to be a nice combination of the flavors I enjoy from Persian and Indian cuisine. In any case, Rickshaw’s stated goal is to bring you “flavors unique from anything you have ever tasted”.
Rickshaw Stop’s approach to this is one of simplicity—they follow one of my tenets of a good food truck, which is “find something you are good at, and focus on that”. The menu at Rickshaw Stop is basically three items: kebabs, samosas, and dessert. So it’s pretty much a matter of picking which kebabs and samosas you want, and getting a combo.
