DinDin-A-GoGo is a gourmet food truck gathering on Thursday nights at the K1 Speed in Gardena, CA. This weekly event founded by Eric Nakata of Lomo Arigato started with two trucks, Lomo Arigato and Tropical Shave Ice. Eric invites 2-3 additional trucks every week to keep things fresh for the guests. So that means every week 4 to 5 trucks invade Gardena to serve up their awesome creations in a fun, family-style setting.
We had a chance to join the party a few weeks back. It felt much like a tailgate party! There were a lot of people having a great time, eating delicious food, visiting with friends and just kickin it.
Now Rick, the owner of Tropical Shave Ice, is bringing DinDin-A-GoGo to the OC! Starting this Wednesday night, Tropical Shave Ice and Lomo Arigato are coming to K1 Speed in Irvine (17221 Von Karman Avenue & McGaw) from 5:30 to 9 p.m. With them this week will be Orange County’s own Dos Chinos and Piaggio On Wheels along with special guest The Shrimp Guys. Both Rick and Eric wanted to use this opportunity to unite the LA & OC food truck scene.
All of these trucks are amazing. We have been to all but The Shrimp Guys and they were on the top of our list to try at this week’s OC Foodie Fest. Now we don’t have to wait until then!
So pack up your foldable chairs, bring your family and friends, and head on over to K1 Wednesday night. If you have not been to a gourmet food truck yet, these are some amazing choices to introduce you to the food truck revolution. I bet you will become addicted like we are! We hope to see you there!
Now that I'm a OC guy. I may be able to talk the wife into attending this. Hope to see you there.
Turns out that Dos Chinos has a conflict and will not be at the event August 25th but say they plan to be at the following weeks event.
