    The Chip Ship - Our genuine foot-long hotdog

    First and foremost the customer service at The Chip Ship was amazing, the woman who took our order…read morewas so sweet and helpful and just overall pleasant to deal with... that alone will bring me back, good customer service means a lot to me. The food was also delicious. I'm a sucker for fresh cut fries and they did not disappoint at all. I had a foot-long hotdog and it was a great quality beef hotdog... and the roll it was on was delicious, not just a regular hotdog roll. Now for the star of the show and what brought us there (even though it was a two hour ride from Buffalo, NY) was the dill pickle poutine... and it was worth the drive. Something different that was also delicious, two thumbs up. I didn't taste the burger but my daughter said it was delicious also... it was on a nice roll and they even toasted that also. Great job guys, we will be back.

    I had the pulled pork poutine and the pickle fries, which is obviously too much for even an…read moreaggressive eater like me. I ordered the tiny sizes, but still, I wish they could just combine the two delicious dishes into one. All my questions were answered at the window (wasn't busy), and the food was hot & ready in moments. The grackles were delighted that I tossed a couple extra fries their way. While this is 'just a food truck', it's also something very special. The area is known for boating and birdwatching, and you really feel like you've arrived at the soul of the place watching over the mini harbor from the two picnic tables. A tiny little spot, but worth stopping.

    I just stumbled upon this place in Jackson Square last Friday as I was in Hamilton for work this…read moreweek. This honestly made my day. I love gourmet food trucks, and so rarely see them. As many of you probably know by now, mac and cheese is my all time favourite. I saw that they had it as a side dish for $2 so had to try it. I wasn't really feeling a sandwich (though the pulled pork looked really good), so I opted for the pulled pork nachos. They nachos were $8 and a pop was $1. When I ordered, the guy who took my order said "why don't we make it a combo" and only charged me $10. I love when places do that! Anyway, the nachos were perfectly cheesy, and were topped with sour cream and pico de gallo (one of my fave things in the world). It was fresh and home made. The absolute best was the pulled pork. It was so deliciously juicy and was coated with a tangy BBQ sauce - not too saucy though! I would get this again for sure. The mac and cheese was just as good. They use the spiral noodles which are always fun. It's not too too cheesy, but has some good herbs and spices that make up for it. It has a bit of a kick too. Just a slight bit of heat. I would have liked a bit more, but I'm not going to lie, with the mac and cheese and nachos I was stuffed and had to bring some more. And yes, it was just as good heated up later. I've been in Hamilton for work this past week too and have walked by Jackson Square everyday hoping the food truck would be there. Unfortunately I've been disappointed b/c it hasn't been there, but they do have a "where are we" map on their website.

    I know that Mercyhurst has the Culinary Cab, but as far as I know, Ernies is the only truly…read moreconsistent food truck in the Erie, PA scene. Of course, that's a shame, but lets hope that the presence of Ernies leads to more people taking the time to get the permits, figure out the logistics, and take this risk. Located on weekdays during work hours at Perry Square, Ernies is a small, locally-owned food truck that offers up Erie's own Smith hot dogs, Italian sausages, hamburgers, turkey burgers, cheesesteaks, steak wraps, BLTs, pulled pork sandwiches, and more. It's a safe menu, sure, but Ernies makes every meal fresh and made-to-order. This means that it takes a little longer (my Italian sausage with onions and peppers took probably 6-7 minutes), but being so fresh and at an extremely reasonable price of $4, it was well worth the wait - especially considering the guys behind the counter were personable and more than willing to chat with me while they were cooking, as it wasn't too busy. From out of town and need to get a fresh Smith's hot dog (aka the best hot dog on the planet)? Here's your chance. As much as I love Sara's for what it is, I've never liked that their dogs sit on the burners for way too long. Here, you don't have to worry about that. Support these guys. They're local... and if they do well, who knows? We could very well see some more of these pop up downtown (how about an El Canelo taco truck, a place with Lake Erie perch fish tacos, Erie pierogies and pepperoni balls, etc.?).
