PEPE Food Truck by Jose Andres @ Nationals' Ballpark

by AJ Dronkers, Associate Publisher & Digital Editor EdibleDC

The Nationals Ballpark food scene gets even better with the addition of PEPE Food Truck by José Andrés featuring  Spanish-inspired flauta sandwiches. Flauta sandwiches are made with fresh long and thin bread and served up in a variety of fillings such as butifarra (pork burger), pollo frito (fried chicken), escalivada (roasted vegetables), and jamon serrano y queso manchego (ham and cheese).

We recently taste tested their Elena (made with portabellas) and Fútbol Club Barcelona (a.k.a. a chicken breast blt) flautas. They were both off the charts when it comes to food truck fare, but the entire team really fell for the Elena. Their next visit will be on Tuesday, 8/25 and you can follow @pepefoodtruck for updates on their daily location.
