    The day was cloudy, dreary and rainy. But that in no way stopped anyone from attending the Food…read moreTruck Round Up! No sir, umbrellas abounded, as folks meandered from truck to truck, sniffing the air for answers to what's cookin', tempting them to certain trucks. It rather smelled like the fair, in a GOOD way, food scents wafting by, mingling with each other as giddy people paid no attention to each other or even their cell phones in an effort to decide which truck to order from. BBQ? Vietnamese? Sweets? Mexican??!! Greek? Oh boy, what fragrant air filled the Eastern Hills Mall parking lot on Transit Road this day. What a concept! If only the trucks lined up like this, like a train, one after the other, once a month instead of annually. Boy, it was our lucky day! We just happened to stumble upon the line up. I knew I must try the Black Market Food Truck, for they served the most awesome food at the Yelp Elite International Institute event recently and I knew I'd find my way to them once again. Today I tried the corn and black bean hummus, and it was delectable with a bite, and beautifully presented, and from a TRUCK! Little slanted slices of crispy dipping bread was alongside the cupful of hummus. Mister ditched the umbrella and hoofed it quickly to Lloyd's and oh my, was that burrito nummy! He ordered the one with braised beef and it was so flavorful, just like home cooked beef, and I seldom eat beef. Rolled in a 12" tortilla, with rice, black beans, a jack/cheddar cheese blend, finely shredded cabbage, chimichurri, and salsa roja it was perfectly spicy and delicious, a plentiful portion of goodness. And for $6.50? Hands down the best burrito I've tasted. We splurged on a Mexican Coca-Cola, super yum taste from childhood, before "corn syrup" took over the real sugar ingredient around these parts. In this inclement weather, not one server had a scowl, all were cheerful and happily serving it up from high upon their truck-turned-order-window. Kudos to all who work the food trucks, may you prosper with such ingenuity and hard work. As in many of my posts, give these non-chain folks the business, they have way more at stake than a fast food joint. Reward them with your patronage! Follow them on their websites and spread the word; give your fellow residents, friends and neighbors the chance to thrive. And Eastern Hills Mall, hellooooo, you folks have done so much for the community since new management took over. How about bringing in the trucks on certain Saturdays, monthly, at least? Pretty please?!

    So as not to overestimate, when calculating Maths, I usually think it's better to "Round Down", but…read morethis food truck festival believes otherwise. I'm sure they'd love me to "Round Up" to a 4, but I can't. Larkin Square has the same issues (massively overpriced with really low standards), but their selection is magnificent (40 to 50 per Tuesday), and they have the influx of Rochester trucks to improve the quality - the Buffalo ones are awful for the most part. I must have spent a good $50 just trying to sample 6 or 7 of these food trucks, which I think is preposterous. Almost everything I ate was average or just really, really bad. The Black Market Food Truck was one enjoyable exception. I wrote reviews of most of these trucks, and then was sent abuse by the owner of my least fave of the trucks I tried - Roaming Buffalo. Plus it was outside and we all got soaking wet as well as ripped off. Despite all the negativity I associate with this event, it's still a bunch of locals trying to get by, and it's still a food truck rodeo in a town that didn't have food trucks for a long time. So I'll give it a 3. But the standard needs to go way up and the prices need to go down, in order for me to ever give food trucks my repeated business in this city.

    Food Truck Round Up - All right, so it's got a bite or two out of it, couldn't wait to taste the burrito from Lloyd's! Awesomeness.

    Went here for a little comfort food on a dreary rainy day. The Cheesy Chick hit the spot. The…read morestaff were friendly and courteous. I enjoyed the decor and while it was spring break on campus could see it as a bustling site. The sandwich was a combination BLT and a grilled turkey and cheese sandwich. The bacon was crusty, the toasted bread had a nice crunch and none of the parts overwhelmed each other. The pickle I got on the side was crisp and not overly garlicky. Definitely will go back next time I'm on campus.

The place itself is very quaint, and I know it's been around for a while--I have actually enjoyed their food previously when their food truck visited my workplace. The people working there were extraordinarily kind, attentive, and pleasant. The atmosphere was entirely charming. I could have taken a lot of time touring their knick knacks. I was excited for this yelp elite event because the grilled cheese I previously had from their food truck was unbelievably good. Maybe my expectations were too high, based on that earlier experience, or maybe the flavor of this particular dish just didn't land quite right for my palate. It is also possible that I was confused what I was leaving with. When I walked in, I told the person that I was there for the elite event and they said to wait a second because cookies are coming out of the oven and she didn't want to send me out with a burnt cookie... so maybe I was a little disappointed that after giving me the container they asked me if I wanted to buy anything else. I understand they are running a business, and the approach felt a bit... misdirection-ed? I took the food back to my workplace and found myself a bit underwhelmed. The mac and cheese wasn't bad; actually, it was good. Still, I have a palate that likes bold flavor. The flavor was there. Tasted like some black pepper, maybe some smoked paprika? It was good. It definitely wasn't as bold as I might have expected. If I'd had some hot sauce handy, I would have enjoyed it far more? Also, I guess somewhat parenthetically, one of the chips fell out of the container, and when I tried it on its own, I was surprised it didn't seem very fresh; just slightly squishy to the bite. Given the chance, I would definitely return, but this particular dish probably wouldn't be my first choice next time.
