I was out of town and still catching up...I don't really know since I'm not in Jersey much but I think they used to be there daily. It's a small area where the trucks generally park so if you asked some of the people in the area, they'd probably know. lost, sorry for the delayed response.

They're not on Columbus as regularly as the Krave, so I first tried it out of convenience. So I've been getting food from them for the past few weeks now and I have to say...I'm addicted! I agree the soft tacos could be a little larger, but then again you can't really buy anything these days for $2.50, so no complaints here. You definitely get your money's worth though with the kimcheedillas. You'll have to wait around for a few minutes after you order while they cook them, but I believe that's better than the alternative if they were pre-made and just kept warm. I usually get off the Path around 9 and so I'm rushing to the truck before they run out of food! Side note: I love Jersey City for the abundance of so many ethnic food choices (and being a lot calmer than the city)...it really is a (fairly unknown/hidden) gem.

I just googled The Krave truck and after a few clicks I ended up here. Regardless of the back-and-forth between the different camps, I have to say that I am a new fan of The Krave. My wife recently started bringing home these nice little treats and they are so full of flavor! I do wish, however, that they were a little bigger. I can eat these suckers with two bites! Keep up the great work guys! Btw, let's keep it classy people and enjoy all the great eats! There's enough hungry people to go around! Much love, Marvin Jersey City Wow, seems like there’s drama going on here. I just googled The Krave truck and after a few clicks I ended up here.
