I went on a whim.
I had no idea there were food trucks there. I got the Cajun Nachos with shrimp. I have never had shrimp on nachos before, but the Cajun flavors really brought everything together. It was unbelievably good.
The service was friendly, and easy going. The atmosphere was light, but I suspect that was because it was near closing time. I bet this collection of food trucks is hoppin'.
They have daily specials. While I waited for my nachos I felt some remorse for not being hungry enough to get an order of Cajun Mac & Cheese (the Tuesday special). But, Friday is Jambalaya. So, I'll be heading back there on Friday.
Second Visit: I had to try this place again. This time I got the Monte Cristo. Forgive me if I get this wrong, but it's a ham and cheese sandwich, dipped in pancake batter, deep fried, then served with syrup. That sandwich was so damn good. I've added picture for everyone to drool over.

A treat for Louisiana transplants who can’t find real Cajun food. This is how a poboy should be dressed. Mayo, tomato, pickle, shrettuce, and anywhere doing any aioli or “remoulade” attempt is from north of I-10. they did us right here! More

Stopped by for the first time on Fat Tuesday and I am glad I did. Grabbed some jambalaya for myself and the wife along with a piece of King Cake. The jambalaya might have been the best I've ever had. If not it was real close. I loved it! … More

But it seemed not as good as I hoped. The poutine was overseasoned with the … More

Best cajun food cart that I've had in the Vancouver/Portland area. Great jambalaya, was impressed when I added crawfish how many tails they added to it. Will come back to try more of the menu on a different day. More
