I had noticed a street truck a few times when I was driving down Bear Valley Road and was curious what kind of food was on offer but was zipping by too fast to see what they had. A few weeks later my wife mentioned that she saw that they had kabobs there so I knew I would have to get there soon. Not long after I had my teenage son who is always up for trying something new and we needed dinner so I gave it a shot. I have been missing Middle Eastern food in Apple Valley singe the closing of Pita Stop a few years ago and am glad to know we have an option on this end of the Victor Valley. The location is at 20339 Bear Valley Road at the top of the large hill above Deep Creek Road.
I will have to go back to try some of the other options so I can’t comment on those yet but I can on the Lamb Pita which is what we ordered. As soon as we placed our order they brought four skewers loaded with marinated lamb cubes to a hardwood fire which was just outside of the truck.
They grilled to order and once the meat was perfectly cooked they brought them back into the truck and assembled the rest of the meal. It consisted of a big thick soft pita bread with the grilled lamb on top. To the side was shredded lettuce, tomatoes, onions and cilantro and a container of a green herb tinted yoghurt sauce. I added the salad and sauce and ate it taco style. The hot savory meat with the cool vegetables and sauce were great. Each element worked and it makes me want to get back soon to try some of the other options.
It is good to have a Mediterranean option in Apple Valley and it is great that it is a good example of the genre. Their website is http://www.musstreetfood.com/ which has part of the menu including the pricing. As of the time of this post the Mediterranean options aren’t on there yet but hopefully soon.
