If you're all about fresh ingredients, meaty bites, and bold Asian inspired sauces, this is definitely the place to check out. I ordered the three bao combo for $20 along with a $7 lavender lemonade. I got the 'Mighty Meat' baos 2 of them and 1 Chick-a-licious Baos as a part of my combo meal. The mighty meat Baos were filled with slow braised shredded beef with spicy Korean barbecue sauce, and the Chicken Baos were flavorful packed with marinated lemongrass, grilled chicken. The baos were steamed fresh after ordering and packed with plenty of meat, layered with fresh toppings, creamy sauce, jalapeños, and kimchi. Every bite was full of flavor, and I enjoyed them so much equally that I'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu. The lavender lemonade was another highlight freshly squeezed with half a lemon added right into the 32 is container. It's such a fun touch and makes the drink even more refreshing as you sip. The owners were really fun to chat with and told me that they have recently started the food truck and would love to venture into the Kansas side as soon as possible. They mentioned that they would be at the 'Kansas City dragon boat festival' in September, so definitely give them a call to confirm those details!! If you love food trucks, supporting local businesses and crave Korean inspired food, Bao Wowz is a must try. For me, it's a definite 10/10!

Cousins Maine Lobster has been around the KC area for a few years now. I had been to a few pop ups…read morewhen they were just starting out here, back when wait times were 2 hours. They have a bigger presence now and do more frequent pop ups so I decided to try them out again. They are just a food truck. You can check out their social media to see when and where they'll be. They also have an app but I have issues with it every single time. On my most recent visit I was unable to order online and had to do so from the truck which was fine but a little irritating. The individuals working the truck were nice but they were a bit unorganized-the iPad for payment was off, I was unable to get a receipt, I wasn't able to scan my app to get points, and I just had to guess/stand around for my food because they didn't seem to have a way to notify me that my order was up. I wasn't able quote five minutes and it was close to that amount of time. I like the lobster grilled cheese paired with the lobster bisque. The grilled cheese isn't huge but it is filling and they put a good amount of lobster in it. The bisque wasn't as good as I remembered it, it used to be richer and it seemed a little thinner than it was in the past. But it was still good with chunks of lobster. I've also had the lobster rolls and they are a little on the small side. They have a new lobster roll flight where you get to the all three varieties. And honestly, that's the way to go. You'll get the most bang for your buck and way more lobster than by getting just one. Overall, it's good and I like to visit them every now and then. They are on the pricey side for a food truck but it's lobster and we live in the landlocked Midwest so it is what it is. If you're wanting something different and feel like some lobster, definitely check them out.

I hate leaving negative reviews, but unfortunately my experience was really disappointing. I drove…read moreabout 30 minutes to the Kansas City location at Westlake Ace because the hours posted on the Cousins Maine Lobster website showed 11:30 AM-7:30 PM. I arrived around 7:03 PM. At first, I went to the wrong side of the truck because I didn't see anyone. I could hear people in the back, so I went around and asked, "Hey, did you guys close early or something?" The employee responded, "We didn't close early. We close at 7," and the way it was said came across as very rude and dismissive. I explained that the website showed they were open until 7:30 PM. He told me it didn't. I even asked if there was anything I could purchase since I had driven 30 minutes based on the hours posted online, and I was told no. I completely understand that employees have a closing time and that schedules can change. My issue is that the hours posted online said 7:30 PM, and I arrived before that time. I also have a photo of the truck timestamped at 7:12 PM, so I was clearly there before the posted closing time. I would have been much more understanding if someone had simply said, "Sorry, our actual closing time is 7 PM and the website hasn't been updated," or even apologized for the confusion. Instead, I felt like I was being treated as though I was at fault for following the hours provided by the business. Unfortunately, I left without getting to try the food, and the interaction left a really bad first impression. I hope the hours are corrected so other customers don't drive out there expecting to be served, only to find out the truck has already closed.

The small cup of pineapple whip ($4.00 including tax) was ready at the window just as soon as I had finished paying with my credit card. It was pretty tasty and stood pretty tall in the 2.5"h x 3.5"w container. Only three flavors of whip were available - pineapple, cherry and twist. They also offered lemonade and strawberry lemonade. Overall, just A-OK.

Only one suggestion to the owners if possible - Maybe more shaded tables outside? There were only two this afternoon and both were taken by long term campers. People are frequently considerate of others needing a table. But, as we all know, that's just some of us - not everyone.

It is so awesome to be able to get a custom beverage and snack right in front of your office first thing in the morning. The convenience factor alone gives it 5 stars. That being said, even if it wasn't convenient I'd seek out this local gem. When I see the CoffeeCake truck around town I feel excitement build within me. Maybe it's the caffeine addiction talking but they serve up some of the best drinks to come out of a truck. I usually stick to a non-fat latte or a freshly brewed tea (hot or iced depending on the season) and my favorite coconut muffins! (For all you coconut haters, I'm glad you hate coconut because then there's still a muffin left for me by the time I get to the truck!) My coworkers favorites are the flat white, pablo, dirty chai, mocha, hot chocolate, and, of course, the infamous coffee cake. Service with a smile is an understatement. By your second or third visit the ladies on the truck will know you're face and order by heart and love you for it!

I remember the first time I saw a coffee truck in New York City's Union Square (Mud Truck) and I…read morethought, what an fantastic concept, considering at that time finding a non-corporate cup of coffee in Manhattan was pretty difficult unless you were willing to walk to the EV or WV. So, I am 100% behind this idea coming to fruition now in Kansas City, where it is admittedly a lot easier to find a non corporate cup of coffee, but try to do so in the evening, especially weekends after 3pm, and you're SOL. Or, perhaps you're having a busy workday and can't get in your car to locate some caffeine. Not to mention, when there are events around town like First Weekends in the Bottoms and you find yourself needing some little boost to get you in for the long haul or art walkin' and antique pickin' (yes, this was me on Saturday). Enter CoffeeCakeKC offering up some of the best roasted bean juice in town! What was it, 95 degrees on Saturday? Nothing like an iced Americano (with soy milk, yay!!) to brighten these languid, humid days and CCKC's is perfect in flavor (nutty, strong, not bitter). I was too hot for a baked good, but I look forward to this option in the future. They look/smell divine! Not to mention the fact the people behind this operation are extremely nice, so ordering up is a pleasure. Be sure to subscribe to their Twitter feed so you can stalk them for that which keeps your motor runnin'.
