Jill Rosen has a good story today about the fits and starts of Baltimore's food trucks.
Check it out.
Guess what, some cities are less hospitable to food trucks than Baltimore is!

About this blog
You are reading the archives. For updated blog posts about the Maryland food scene, see Richard Gorelick's new Baltimore Diner blog.
Richard Gorelick was appointed The Baltimore Sun's restaurant critic in September 2010. Before joining the paper staff fulltime, he contributed freelance criticism and features articles about food to area and regional publications. Along the way, he dispatched for short-distance trucking companies, shilled for cultural non-profits, and assisted in cognitive neurology research – never the subject, always the control.
He takes restaurants seriously but not himself, and his favorite restaurant is the one you love, too.

maybe we're not hospitable to the souper freak because she wears Nationals gear?
just a thought...

Interesting comments on that article. Lots of people suggested the trucks should come out to Woodlawn - SSA, CMS, and Lord Baltimore Drive where there are LOTS of office professionals and few eating options. I hope they do - I'd be willing to try out a few of these places, even the slightly whiny Soup Ladyas long as she switches to O's and Ravens gear.

They should try their luck in East Baltimore around E. Monument St. and Kresson St. Lots of businesses and locals looking for something other than the usual fast food.

I was just walking on Calvert in between Centre and Monument and there was a man in a suit arguing with the ladies of the Soup truck. I stopped by the Cupcake truck after seeing that and the woman informed me that they were getting shut down. No more food trucks for Baltimore Sun restaurant critics at work!
