Need a Quick Bite? Check Out More "Meals on Wheels" Courtesy of LA Times Blogger!

Following up on the CitySearch editor,Mar Yvette suggestions from yesterday– as well as a much earlier post by moi on the same subject, the LA Times has Elina-Shatkin’s blog who has a huge list online of various tweetable treats on wheels. Shatkin talks about the phenom of mobile nouveau food and she put together a nifty list of resto’s and other indie food lines that are out there on the streets of So. Cal that you can follow on twitter.com and find a slew of good eats — IF you are timely in your tweets.
Here’s a portion of her list:
Baby’s Badass Burgers, which rolled out Monday, Aug. 10, features gourmet burgers like the Man Eater (-half-pound beef burger) and the Cougar (aged beef, St. Andre cheese and black truffles), all served by babes in cheek-hugging hot pants and skintight tank tops.

There’s a lot more on Elina’s list and some that haven’t opened yet (where does she get her 411? She certainly has great sources). However I would suggest you bookmark this page to stay up to date on what’s new and rolling on the mobile food front. There’s a good reason to be reading the LA Times!!
It’s an entirely new definition of fast food.
