Location: Georgia St and Hornby - exact location 700 Hornby St. right across from Caffe Artigiano on Hornby
Type of Food: BBQ Sandwiches
Sidekicks: Kristina, Jason and Santu (Also tried on the same day by my Secret Sidekick, Helen and KB)
Food Ordered:
- Tara, Kristina and Jason - The Pulled Pork Sandwich, Tara and Kristina also had sweet tea
- Santu - Beef Brisket Sandwich
The pulled pork was delicious! I couldn't get enough. I also wish I could have had more of the delicious, crisp, fresh coleslaw. The bun on the other hand, was not my favourite. I wouldn't say that this would be addictive, but it was tasty.
The sweet tea was yummy! I would go back for this drink. Not too sweet and as close to American Iced tea that I've had here.
To combine the delicious flavours of the pork and the coleslaw with a plain, white kaiser bun seemed like a cop-out to me. I would consider myself a bit of a bread snob, so the fact that this plain, white kaiser bun seemed to ruin the experience for me may not apply to everyone. As a rule I don't like white bread. I would have much preferred to have an option for a more nutritional bun or to try the pulled pork over a bed of coleslaw without the bun entirely.
Santu and Helen(my coworker who had gone earlier) said that the beef brisket was also delicious. With a smoky, almost masala taste, the general feeling I got from Helen was that she would definitely try it again.
Favourite Thing About This Truck:
The pulled pork. They've kept it simple and delicious! The coleslaw was also pretty yummy! Also worthy of note - the company who braved the rain to try this truck with me.
Accessibility: Great location for the downtown core in front of the art gallery on the Hornby side. A few blocks from transit, but still a pretty good location for us.
Green Rating: Nothing worth mentioning here. They used non-recycled paper bags, napkins and didn't have paper recycling. They also serve their sweet tea in non-recyclable plastic cups.
Rating: 3.5/5 - (4/5 if I was able to order the pulled pork on a bed of coleslaw without the bun)
Value: 5/5
