Sandwich Brothers

Crab cake sliders! Delicious! 2 sliders for $ 8. Could be a little cheaper given that its only slider size… but I guess its crab.
The bread rolls were so fresh. They reminded me of little hawaiian bread roll, soft and slightly sweet. The crabcakes were really good. Good crunchy crust and packed with real crab. Didn’t skimp on the good stuff :) slider came with homemade coleslaw which was also good. Could’ve done with a little spicy mayo or remoulade. Otherwise, pretty good sliders. Impressive for a food truck!
The truck parks on Wilshire across from the La Brea tar pits every monday — friday from about 11am — 1pm.

Forgive me for sounding like Capt. Obvious here, but if you run a food truck and you decide to call it «Sandwich Brothers»; the first thing you need is a brother. I am gonna assume they covered that base, and move onto to the second thing you need – bread.
Bread is important, and not just because it keeps the meat and veggies from falling on the ground. This isn’t rocket science; even the folks in Subway’s corporate office have figured it out. Sure it took them 10 or 20 years, but I think most of you realized it the 1^st time Mom gave you something other than Wonder Bread.
Keep that in mind as you read about the steak sandwich I had. They used decent meat (perhaps tri-​tip) grilled the peppers, caramelized the onions and added fresh tomato, a nice slice of melted provolone and left off the lettuce as I requested.
They have a condiment they call Tiger Sauce, which is a little like Thai sauce, a little like Buffalo Sauce, and a little like 1000 Island. And trust me, it tasted a lot better than I am making it sound. Had this truck decided to call themselves the «Bowl Brothers» and dumped all these goodies into a paper bowl; we might be looking at 5 stars here
But instead, they served it on a French looking white bread roll, which seemed to me like it was baked in an Arizona prison and shipped here on a slow truck. That’s right– the roll was so bad I am knocking it down from 4.5 stars to 2. I am glad I got a fork, because that’s how I ate the sandwich. I picked a little at the roll, but more out of curiosity than anything else.
C’mon brothers, you need to find a good source of bread, and you need to find one right away. Or else sandwich Mom should turn this truck around RIGHT NOW and make you go home and stay in your room. If not switch to the bowls and skip the concept of sandwiches.
And if some tree-​hugger out there wants to point out how the bowls will sit in some landfill for 12,000 years before they begin to degrade; hold that thought. Because I doubt the roll I had today would decompose any more quickly than that.
