Ladies and Gentledudes, I am pleased to announce….drumroll pretty please….The Peached Tortilla. No, dear readers, this is not your average joe taco truck. In fact, it’s not a taco truck. It does serve tacos, but totally rad ones with crazy ingredients like Smoky Roasted Peach BBQ sauce and…okay, well I can’t give away the menu just yet.
Soon-to-open by the wacky ideator, but serious-about-food Mystery Entrepreneur: Eric Silverstein. Ambitious 27-year-old Eric hails to us from the legal profession in St. Louis, Missouri less than a mere two months ago to live this mobile dream and attract peachy customers along the way.
So where can we find this funky truck?
It will be serving up gourmet food with Southern and Asian influences at Star Bar on W. 6th Street late on Saturday nights. Say goodbye to searching for quality bites late night downtown. You now have a pretty darn good excuse for being out ’til the wee hours of Sunday mornings. And, if you work for Dell (Round Rock Headquarters) or at the Apple campus, you may just be able to get recharged mid-workday with a scrumptious lunch. You may also spot it around the UT campus once it starts rolling. But, for starters, stop by the Grand Opening celebration at Star Bar at 600 W. 6th Street on September 25th at 9 p.m. for complimentary tastings.
So what does it mean to “get peached”? You define it. Let the food move and inspire you. The Peached Tortilla brings a new experience to street food: catch-me-if-you-dare, fancy-fresh, gourmet-simple, bite-sized, yet flavor-explosive, memorable-magnetic; sparking a return visit. Without further ado, my friends, here is the latest menu to splash the streets of Austin. *Prices pending.
*Check back tomorrow (September 14th) for photos of the “flavor-smitten” delicacies you can hardly hold your horses for in the days leading up to the debut of The Peached Tortilla.
Also, if you are interested in having The Peached Tortilla serve at your next event or if you have a spot you’d like to see them roll into, contact them here.

I’ll take the Southern squash with fries, peach mint dipping sauce – and homemade lemonade! Can’t wait to try this out! Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks, Jesse! Glad you didn’t really hold your breath…I hear people need to be alert in law school. And, yes, there was an exciting addition to my footer this weekend 🙂
Halley- I can’t wait to try the Summer Squash taco too! Let’s get peached together!
