Someone I met works for a food truck.
Tam and I decided to go to Eat the Street today since the theme was spicy. After walking around, we decided on a food truck called La Roux. They serve Cajun and Creole food. Seemed legit.
We waited in line for about 15-20 minutes, par for the course at any food truck thing. As we approached the counter we heard the following:
"Can I order the sampler?"
"We're out of gumbo."
"How about just the jambalaya?"
"We're out of that too."
"What about the dump truck fries?"
"Oh... We ran out of steak."
At some point, we were thinking, why don't you just say what you do have. The girl then proceeded to announce what the truck didn't have to the line... Except no one could hear her. It wasn't going to be a good experience for anyone after that.
We ended up getting the etouffee and crab fries... And they were alright. Almost not worth the line at all.
