San Antonio Food Truck: Rickshaw Stop and the Tamarind Shrimp Tacos

Daniel and I are huge fans of Rickshaw Stop’s Pakistani Kebabs. We continuously  recommend Rickshaw Stop to our friends, because we truly believe that they are the best food truck in San Antonio. This food truck serves unique Beef Bihari Kebabs, Chicken Boti Tikka Kebabs, Samosas, Vegetarian Rice, Baklava and Kheer.

The chunks of beef and chicken are always tender, because they marinade them for 48 hours. What makes their kebabs spectacular is the thick and flaky paratha (bread) they use to serve their kebabs. It is soft enough to bite through, but sturdy enough to hold everything together. My kids usually steal half my paratha (bread).

Their gorgeous, belly-filling kebabs come with three different sauces: a cilantro and mint sauce for beef, a mild yogurt and cilantro sauce, and a sweet and sour Tamarind sauce for the chicken kebabs. The Tamarind sauce is my favorite component of the meal.  I’m a sucker for anything that is both sweet and spicy. I always order extra Tamarind sauce.

The Three Little Pigs

One of Annabelle’s favorite books is The Three Little Pigs. We get to the end of the story where it says that the wolf won’t eat pigs anymore. Annabelle says, “Why not? I like to eat pigs.” I ask, “Oh really? What does pig taste…

This book is in the form of a parable and billed as “Twelve keys to successful living”.  I’m most interested to see how the book relates being a Christian with being a business owner. As the forward states, “We’re not called to divide our Sunday…
