'Union City Eats' Food Truck Dinner Menu: July 21

Union City Eats is quickly becoming a local tradition. Now in its fourth week, the summer event series brings a variety of unique gourmet food trucks to the Wal-Mart parking lot in Union Landing — and hundreds of people — every Thursday.

Based on the consistently large turnouts, it's safe to say Union City foodies love it. The event offers rare food finds, from Twisted Chill's organic frozen flavors to Grill Stars' crazy concoctions, along with a fun and relaxing environment for families.

Today's event features eight trucks, many of which are now staples of the weekly food festival, including local favorites MoGo BBQ and Grill Stars, who will be featuring an all-BBQ menu.

So here's what's cookin' tonight, according to April Bibbins, event organizer with Food Truck Mafia. (Note: Lineup is subject to change.)

BBQKalbi

• A Union City Eats regular, BBQ Kalbi features a Korean fusion menu that ranges from Kalbi (beef) to Spicy Pollo (chicken) to Kimchi quesadillas. Their unagi (eel) burritos have been a favorite at the Union City events.

Grill Stars

• While they debuted some inventive items last week, such as the "Elvis Burger" — a burger topped with peanut butter, bananas and bacon — the Fremont-based food truck is keeping it traditional tonight. With the exception of their famous nachos, they'll be serving BBQ platters and sandwiches only, which choices of pulled chicken, pulled pork and tri-tip. Platters come with sides of ranch beans and homemade mac and cheese.

MoGoBBQ

• One of the first food trucks, and the most consistent, to visit Union City, MoGo BBQ is a local favorite. The truck specializes in Korean BBQ served in burritos, tacos, sliders, quesadillas and bacon-wrapped hot dogs with kimchi.

That’s Sweet! Dessert Truck

• Cupcakes — yummy, specialty cupcakes — are the stars of this gourmet truck. Flavors range from Salted Caramel and Maple Bacon to Red Velvet and Chocolate Vanilla. While it may sound perfect for a dessert, don't wait too long — their cupcakes sell out fast.

Tikka Bytes

• Tikka Bytes is scheduled to make its return today, offering Indian street food served in an American way. The menu features rice bowls, burritos and a "Naanwich," a sandwich served on Indian flatbread. But watch out — when they say "spicy," they really mean it. Other Indian dishes like Tikka Masala and Shahi Korma are also available.
