As Tevye sings, the Columbus Food Truck Show has become “Tradition”.
I know it’s only been happening for two years but we have had a good
time stomping around the commons, enjoying the people zoo and trying
some new eats. We actually tripled our truck fare in our second year
and while they couldn’t all be great we did make a couple of finds.
We probably had more that was mediocre but that just comes with
more, we also had more tastiness. We snacked at
The Good Frank,
Holy Smoke BBQ, The Coop,
Nicolasa’s,
The Burrito Bus and
Gigi’s Cupcakes This is The Nicolasa's. |

Nicolasa’s was offering a number of wraps but we were filling up and were instead attracted to the little sign underneath the menu which listed about a half dozen smoothie flavors. We ordered three, a strawberry, a pina colada and a mix of all of the above. While we were waiting for the smoothies to blend we were transfixed by what was going on at Island Noodles next door. These guys had a line a mile long…exponentially longer than any other truck and they were serving veggies and noodles.
There was a bit of a show with two guys furiously slicing veggies
and dumping noodles into large woks but you couldn’t see that from
the end of the line. I don’t know if they were any good but they
sure caught everyone’s attention. |

What was this post about again? Oh yeah, our trio of smoothies
arrived. They were good, cold and packed with fruity sweetness. They
might even have been good with a cup of udon but three hours is a
bit much for me. The smoothies were refreshing and quick. |
