There is one on Saums Road out past Fry that is great.  Great fajitas 
and breakfast tacos.

I'm visiting SF, actually Hayward Ca., on business and there are a lot 
of the "roach coaches" here.  One guy is reputed to have over 90 of 
these all over the area.  He IS licensed and they are quite clean, 
serving much better food than the "regular" restaurants.

=======================

This doesn't mean that there are not unlicensed vendors out there. Nor 
does it mean that they are all clean and following code. Maybe the guy 
has actually seen what he said he saw.  Maybe the responder KNOWS the 
poster, has seen him post before and with a racial slant. If so, I stand 
corrected BUT if not, to label him a racist is completely off base and 
wrong and normally a response by those who have their own "racist" 
agenda of supporting the various laws breaking by the huge number of 
illegal aliens flooding in over our borders.

Actually, has nothing to do with race.  People are flooding in from 
everywhere including Eastern Europe, Africa, the Orient, Mideast, South 
America, some parts of regular Europe, just about everywhere.

With 7 billion people in the world, and our US population growing at 
grossly increasing, unprecedented numbers, many think that it has to 
stop someplace  before we finally finish overtaxing our environment and 
cause irreversible, very serious, harm. Getting tired of hearing that 
anyone who is alarmed by the huge increase in our population with a rate 
of growth exceeding that of most "third world" countries, is a racist of 
some sort. Many of us, of every nationality and race, limited the number 
of our offspring and we actually succeeded in lowering our population 
rate of increase to just slightly above replacement level. This progress 
has been obliterated by the massive influx of people crowding in over 
our borders.  Sorry to say it but the wild, unbounded, untamed west is 
gone and will never return and it is about time people started to 
realize it.

I'll get of the soapbox and promise to not bring it up again.  Obviously 
way off topic.

===============
On topic, the food, in general, here in Ca. is NOT as good as that in 
Houston.  Barbecue is just plain BAD, Mexican is nowhere as good as I 
get at home (except on the roach coaches) and most of the various 
oriental variations are very sub par when compared to the Houston area. 
Sushi is generally more available and good but no better than I get in 
Houston. Pizza in not as good as in many places in Houston. Far less 
places to have a decent breakfast.

Now, this isn't on the piers etc. but is true, in general, outside the 
city proper.
