BIZNOTE: Yes, El Camion will return

Fauntleroy food fans not only were coping this past week with news of The Original Bakery‘s closure plan, but also with the absence of the El Camion food truck. A few asked us about its status, including a question in the WSB Community Forums. So we’ve been pursuing an update and heard back this morning from Scott at El Camion, who said “most definitely” they’ll be back: “We are doing some maintenance on the truck and some site improvements. Hope to be back and up and running by Tuesday or Wednesday.” El Camion has been set up at 9250 45th SW in the Endolyne business district for three and a half years.

Hooray! The fish tacos and shrimp tacos are especially terrific! Have also heard glowing reviews of the burritos!

The shrimp burrito with extra veggies is my favorite!

Anyone know the update on El Camion? It’s been almost a week since it was supposed to return. We are missing our fish tacos and mole!

El Camion – Going dark isn’t good for business. Please be professional and offer your community an update.

I just checked in with them and got a speedy reply. Will write this in a separate biznote but they’ve been waiting on truck parts and are now hopeful they might be back Saturday.
