I really don't have a desire to try food truck burgers much, I can take them or leave them, but when I saw that this truck was coming to our Food Truck Tuesdays at work, I logged in to my trusty Yelp and checked them out. Such GREAT reviews that I just had to see what this truck was all about. There are definitely some pros and cons to it, but overall I give it a 4.5 stars.
A co-worker went to the truck first and came back with only seasoned fries. She said "they said they forgot to bring bacon". HUH? How do you forget bacon... never forget your bacon!! She raved about the fries and said that she would have ordered a drink but way too expensive.
So, I took my turn down to the brightly decorated and festive truck. I went to the window and said "I hear you don't have bacon?" the girl inside replied "No, we have bacon".... hmmmm. As I waited for my food, 4 people were waiting for their order in front of me; all 4 orders were messed up, I was a bit skeptical seeing that and knowing about the whole "bacon/no-bacon" thing. But I was determined to try this place even if I had to take out a 2nd mortgage to buy something. So I ordered the BIG BACON CHEESY BURGER and a side of CRISPY CORN NUGGETS. This was a pricy lunch but it was abso-freaking-lutely delicious!!!
** BIG BACON CHEESY BURGER: Brioche bun was super soft but still able to hold up the mighty ingredients inside; big, perfectly cooked and seasoned patty, loads of completely melted cheese and a few strips of bacon (needs more bacon, especially for the price). I was a little let down when I asked what kind of sauce comes on it and they said they make it plain and you add your own and pointed to little packets of mayo, mustard and ketchup. Little packets?? Really?? Tacky and disappointing. So I thought I'd just find something in the fridge at the office to pour in it, but once I took a bite without any sauce, I realized that it doesn't need any at all, it's perfect without it!! I really loved this cheeseburger, was sorry I said I'd split it! $9.99
** CRISPY CORN NUGGETS: I have no idea how they make these or what exactly it's made out of but they are like heavenly puffs of crunchy, doughy, gooey stuff crammed with kernels of corn. I could have ordered 100 of these and gone back for more. I shared the small order with 4 people in my office and all of us said "Mmmmmmmmmm" after the first bite and any bites taken after that. $5.50
** SEASONED FRIES: I didn't have any of these, but my non-baconed co-worker did and she said they were amazing and she'd definitely recommend them and have them again if the truck ever came back.
** FOUNTAIN DRINKS: Interesting that fountain sodas were installed in the side of this truck. Nice touch and they are unlimited so drink up while you wait because they'll put you back $6.50.
Other items that looked interesting and yummy: Funnel Cake stick with ice cream and sauce, mac-n-cheese balls, sweet potato fries, onion rings and real Ice Cream Shakes (STRAWBERRY!!!!)
All in all, I'd do this truck again as long as I can split the bill and the food with someone. I'd like to try the Strawberry Shake and get another order of those Corn Nuggets.... keeping both of those totally to myself however. :)
The girl was super friendly and the dude was super cute with his adorable dimples.
Nice job RBB..... CHEERS!!
