A new food truck in Salt Lake City is serving up Peruvian and Mexican comfort classics.
Dig in: Latin Truck, parked at 67 W. 1700 South, offers tacos, lomo saltado, salchipapas — a popular Latin American street food made with sliced sausage and fries — and more.
- The kitchen is helmed by first-time chef Brath Llacta Granados, who hails from Peru.
- Many of the dishes are prepared in a wok, a nod to the Chinese influences deeply rooted in many Peruvian dishes.
Best bites: I ordered the truck's charred steak tacos and filling arroz chaufa — Chinese-Peruvian fusion fried rice — that fed me for three meals.
The bottom line: If you find yourself in Ballpark, Latin Truck is a worthy stop for wok-fired dishes and tasty street food.
