Food-truck review: Farm Truck

What is it? A "mobile farmer's market" that whips up hearty sandwiches, soups and salads made with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Fare that's more healthy and tasty than you might expect from two guys in a truck.

What to eat: Owners Kris Pepper and Eliot Coven are still plating their winter menu, which features the flavorful grilled squash sandwich (squash, ham, mixed greens, goat cheese and homemade herb mustard on multigrain bread) and rib-sticking soups, such as chipotle black bean chili and organic potato and leek. Also amazing salads - we liked the beet salad with shredded white cheddar and maple-glazed walnuts.

How 'bout dessert? Grab a bag of broken dark chocolate - chunks of the semisweet stuff that you can get crusted in locally roasted coffee.

Where to find it: Until they get their bearings - Farm Truck first rolled out of the garage last month - the truckers are sticking to Philadelphia University's campus, in East Falls. They occasionally venture out to new locations. We found them parked close to the Barnes Foundation, and they've also been known to visit Fishtown on Friday evenings.

What to look for: Thanks to "post-visionary" artist Gabe Felice's multicolored mural, you can't miss this mobile outfit. Be social: Pinpoint the truck's location on Facebook (facebook.com/farmtruckphilly) or Twitter (@Farm_Truck).
