The food blogger gods are on my side in 2012... a new day job has me
working in University City rather than commuting an hour away from the food haven
of Philadelphia each day. That can only mean one thing: more lunches
to write about!
Midtown Lunch recently highlighted
Delicias, a new Venezuelan-themed food truck at 34th & Market near Drexel/Penn. These awkwardly warm winter days have
been perfect for venturing out at lunchtime so I gave Delicias a try.

| Choripan Sandwich - look at allll those onions! |
The chorizo sandwich, called a Chorpian ($5), was
great. It's a long, soft, toasted roll with several
pieces of sliced, medium-spiced chorizo, covered in homemade pico de gallo and
caramelized onions. Admittedly, I picked off a handful of onions so
I wouldn't totally stink up the office, but there were still plenty
left to enhance the flavor. The pico de gallo had a nice kick but not
more than my sally-pants could handle.
Also key in food truck lunch
excursions, the Choripan traveled well back to the office. It had a good
15 minute walk to survive but the tight foil wrapping worked well.
