Businesses come and go in Key West. I was walking Rusty down here early one day and saw the sign advising all he world there are fish and chips to be had here. Last time I came by it was a pizza truck...I think...
It is a food truck parked where they are always parked here, whatever food they may be selling. I was encouraged to see the owner of the original food truck back on the spot and serving customers.
In March 2014 I came across a South African Food Truck operated here by a South African business woman by the name of Helena. She and her husband were food truck pioneers and like all pioneers they were less than warmly received by a community that clings to its traditions and brick and mortar restaurants.
But the redoubtable entrepreneur is back offering what no one else does, as well as foodstuffs that others do sell:
I took a few pictures while I waited for my fish to fry.
And then I loaded it in my cart and took the two lunches to go back to my wife's office.

The fish and chips looks pretty good and I believe you should be a good judge of how it should be. But it seems very un-Key West...
It's funny because Helena said she chose that precise menu as no one offers it in Key West. And you know what else? The Clam Shack around the corner does massive business selling new England specialties and even got on the Food Channel Diners show. I don't know how that place is typical either! But its good in its way.
I loved Yebo so much!! I was really sad when they left. I hope they find a way to sneak the Bunny Chow back in there!
