Our expert real estate advisors share some of their favorite options in this ultimate guide to Alabama Gulf Coast food trucks:

• Smoke Shak on Wheelz - 7651 Hwy. 59, Foley, AL 36535
  The South loves its barbecue, so it's not surprising that Smoke Shak on Wheelz, located near Foley homes for sale, is a popular destination. You can order several different types of barbecue sandwiches, including pulled pork, slow-smoked prime beef brisket, smoked and chopped prime beef brisket, smoked turkey, and pork sausage. Each sandwich is topped with coleslaw and has potato salad and a pickle on the side, and if you're especially hungry, you can have extra meat added to most for an upcharge. But make sure to save room for banana pudding or cobbler for dessert!
  
  
• Front Yard Tacos - 306 St. Anthony St., Mobile, AL 36603
  Sharing a yard with Nova Espresso coffee shop near downtown Mobile homes for sale, Front Yard Tacos serves delicious breakfast and lunch tacos in addition to other dishes. You can enjoy your food outside or inside at the coffee shop. Try the steak and eggs taco with marinated and seared flank steak, eggs, and cheese. Or go a little outside the box with the B n' P taco, stuffed with sweet potato, chipotle maple black beans, onions, celery, bell peppers, eggs, pickled onion, and sauce.
  
  
• Bondi Bowls - 1501 US-98, Daphne, AL 36526
  For fun and healthy acai and pitaya bowls, head to Bondi Bowls, located just around the corner from Daphne homes for sale. Customize your bowl by choosing a size and base (acai or pitaya), and then top it off with a variety of goodies, including homemade vegan granola, Nutella, homemade peanut or almond butter, strawberries, kiwis, chia seeds, coconut, and more. The most popular choice is The Bondi, with the food truck's signature acai blend topped with homemade granola, sliced bananas, and strawberries.
  
  
• Vegan Time - 10 Springdale Blvd., Mobile, AL 36606
  You might assume that if you're looking for healthy eating options, a food truck may not be your best bet. But if you're following a vegan diet or would simply like to try healthy, unprocessed dishes made from scratch using fresh produce and other ingredients, Vegan Time fits the bill! Dishes taste rich and indulgent, so you won't feel like you're missing anything—especially not flavor. Customer favorites include nachos, boneless wings, Cajun butternut squash fries, curry oyster mushrooms over quinoa, and macaroni and cheese.
  
  
• Top's Food & Catering - 420 Holcombe Ave., Mobile, AL 36606
  You'll have a large number of choices on the menu at Top's Food & Catering, which you'll find at the loop at Holcombe Avenue in Mobile.

Lunch and dinner options include burgers, specialty hot dogs and nachos, grilled pork chops, and a seafood platter. And be sure to try the decadent Big Top fries (preferably to split among friends or family). They're loaded with shrimp, ground beef, bacon, cheese, chili, and peppers.
