lunch from a vehicle. gross.— BillyBoy70- Enjoy your lunch at the Wawa after you get in your car to drive there in deep suburbia.........
— Earl J - Don't knock it until you have tried it.
Gourmet food trucks have become the subject of a TV show and a way of life across the country.— rita rn - How does it contribute to the economic vitality of the City to allow roving low-rent (practically rent-free) trucks to undercut those who own or lease physical restaurants? It makes no sense. I wonder how many do-gooders ignore this in the name of eating some "cool" food?
If I had an eatery in 30th Street Station or on the Penn or Temple or Drexel campuses, etc., I would want the food trucks to scram!— BillyBoy70 - Lunch from a vehicle is not gross. I've seen a lunch truck with a wood-fired pizza oven in it. This is food truck on a different scale. Unfortunately I work on the other side of downtown.
Go out and see what these are like before you post another ill-informed comment that just shows your ignorance.— Tatt2 - It sure didn't take long for a negative comment. I think this is great and I The Porch is one of my favorite places to sit and just hang out when the weather gets warmer— The_Unknown-Poster
- gross! roach coach!— SlimFox
- come to Univ City, we need some new blood!!
- I will stick with dirty water dogs. Don't want any of that hipster and yuppie food. What the heck is a cow and a curd? Can you put it on a sandwich?— jbetty01
- I'm pretty sure cow curd = cheeseburger. Not exactly hipster yuppie food. — SU_alum
- Hipsters are lemmings— ConverseB24
If "roach coach" or gross comes to mind, then you have no idea what you are talking about. The food trucks listed in the post above all offer fantastic food. I just wish they were a little closer to my office today and not at 30th Street.— JDPhilly- I suppose Street will have the most strategic spot. Hope he will finally pay his taxes. http://articles.philly.com/2008-09-27/news/24991646_1_federal-tax-returns-substantial-income-davis— dogman5
- This comment has been deleted.— Cheese Steak Charlie
- That's because the food isn't free from the .gov. These trucks go where the paying public is out and about for lunch. — Taxpaying Voter
