Finally, Fat Shallot

Long sought by the voyagers, the Fat Shallot truck was finally run to ground on Friday, at Riverfront Plaza.



Fabulous sandwiches but what
you really need to know about are
the fries

Fries, and turkey sandwich



Fries, and cheese sandwich (avocado, not bacon)

Fat Shallot's take on the Chicago flag.  All the
time we thought those were stars.

La Cocinita

Here's their story (from http://lacocinitafoodtruck.com/ ) - La Cocinita, literally “The Little Kitchen,” is dedicated to serving fresh, authentic, gourmet street food from Latin America. We offer an array of delicious and inexpensive options, ranging from traditional Mexican tacos to less familiar South American fare such as arepas and patacones.

"With 100% Sugar" -- no kidding!

When is a sandwich not a sandwich?

Simple - when it is made with a baguette.

DönerMen latest F.T.O. stop

They call it German street food.  Our adventurers went for the Staff favorite Döner Box - "All the goods of a Doner Kebab served over a bed of fries and fresh greens instead of bread."

From the DönerMen website:

 

Our menu items contain some unfamiliar although delicious ingredients that we always make in house.

Tzatziki - The most familiar of our ingredients, we mix strained yogurt with cucumbers, garlic, dill and mint to make this creamy sauce.
Shirazi - Also known as Jerusalem Salad, we mix cherry tomatoes and cucumber with fresh lemon and parsley.
Harissa - Our North African Harissa, is a spicy chili paste,accentuating the flavor of chili peppers, lemon, garlic and the spice mix, with heat.
Curry Sauce - A sweet and tangy savory sauce with mild curry spices.

 

Menu. The truck was on Columbus.

The Box.  Very good.

The Ginger Ale says "Hot" and it is that.
