“you people are calling things HIGH END FOOD TRUCK. dont you see the problem there!”
Rob – it is possible to make something of restaurant quality from a food truck. since the foodtruck owners have less overhead, they are able to sell for less than if you were to buy the same item at a brick and mortar shop.
Not defending the ice cream, however, the calexico cart on Prince/Wooster is the bomb.
i like regular ice cream just fine, but the fancy ice cream has better ingredients that cost more, hence the higher price (not saying $6 is justified though)
Yes, rob, and every time you go into a bodega and buy yourself a 25 cent Circus Time ice cream bar, it drags the price right back down. NYC ice cream market has options for everyone.
As I write I am sitting in an airport on my way back to NYC, donatella.
Brooklyn life is great & love living in the Slope so far (still splitting time & working up here). Although it always sounds corny to say it, PS really is one of the best neighborhoods in the City. I think there’s a good balance between old Slope & new Slope in terms of people and businesses.
Even though I lived in Manhattan for 10+ years I now rather resent it when I have to go over there.
you people are calling things HIGH END FOOD TRUCK. dont you see the problem there!
and donatella, the reason i get pissy is because when people think it’s a good idea to turn every type of product imagineably into a high end version, then the lower end stuff invariably gets price raises as well. it’s quite annoying.

No, because high end food trucks sell high end food.
Rob, is she cute? if so, I can complete the “transaction” for you since I’m already here in Midtown
