La Humita On Wheels

The website roaminghunger.com has this to say about our destination last Thursday:  Run by two brothers with a passion for big eats, La Humita's served Chicago its finest Ecuadorian delicacies for over a decade, drawing in fans from all over Illinois. Now La Humita's looking to expand, with a food truck equipped to handle any and all mouths it hasn't reached yet. And it's not stopping til it achieves total domination.

La Humita's domination all adds up to your satisfaction, so catch them next time they're out to catch the very best in Latin flavor, authentically prepared and delivered straight to you, no trekking required. A hearty selection of stews, sandwiches, platters and more are all onboard, waiting to greet you with soul and warmth. We're not trying to run your life or anything, but might be best not to leave them waiting.

We had the carne asada; the truck was right outside the building on Columbus Drive.

Finally, Eric branches out

Kathryn claims that I did once order something other than la Croque Madame from Bruges Brothers, but I certainly don't remember it.  That made Thursday a big day, when I went for the Papas Bravas which has chorizo, bacon and other wonders.

"The truck is out front"

...can only mean one thing.  Bruges Brothers was on Columbus Street on Friday.

Comfort food on a cold day

La Humita On Wheels was Friday's stop on a bitter cold and windy way.  Ecuadorian fare -- chicken on rice, salad, beans, soup -- the spot at the 41st floor cafeteria.


Fortunately the truck was steps away on Columbus Drive

Stuck in a frites rut

There were a dozen options at Daley Plaza on Croatia - America Day but we had eyes only for the black truck of Bruges Brothers.
