Viva SudAfrika!

Hopefully by now, you all have realized that the World Cup has started and will continue in South Africa for a weeks to come. With a lucky goal, USA tied against it's rival England and the games go on. Whether you're watching the games on your couch, at bar or even on your work computer (I won't tell anyone) be sure to make a trip to wherever the ESPN Match Truck is stationed throughout Manhattan.

Food trucks are quite popular these days, and this truck is no exception. There are only two, one in NYC and one in LA and the menu features food from participating countries. Silver dollar pancakes in support of Team USA, Rice Balls for Italy and Mandoo Dumpings for South Korea. All made by the one and only chef Roy Choi, who was voted one of the best new chefs by Food and Wine Magazine. He also knows the food truck business well as he has his own truck (Kogi) on the streets of LA serving Korean Mexican fare day and night.

I haven't been privileged enough to stop by the Match Truck yet, but it's on my to do list and will hopefully hit it up at it's most convenient stop, 23rd street and 5th avenue. Be sure to follow them on twitter for all the recent updates, including its daily locations @ESPNWCTruckNYC

Be on the look out for a more detailed food review, but for now you might need to try this one on your own.
