| - I was really excited about this food truck. The concept is definitely unique and who wouldn't like a bun stuffed with mac and cheese. The staff is really nice and I really like the sides. The truffle tater tots are to die for and the Frisco garlic fries are also great. But the buns are pretty bland.
I came to the grand opening at Costco and I've tried to visit every time they are at Costco so I could try all the buns. I've tried everything except the sloppy bun, a bun stuffed with spaghetti, which I am eager to try but they've been out.
The pork special (now called Hot Pig?) is ok but not spicy.
Dad's picadilly is interesting, but not very tasty. Like taco meat with some vegetables in it. There is dill in the bun, but I couldn't really taste it.
Mac and cheese bun (now McCheesy, I think) is mac and cheese in a bun. There is supposed to be mushrooms and/or truffle in the bun but I could not taste either. But the second time I tried it, I got more truffle flavor in the mac and cheese. But I think I built this one up too much in my head and it just disappointed me in the end.
BBQ rib bun was ok. There is cilantro in the bun, but I can't really taste it.
The bacon bird bun is probably my favorite so far. Nice bacon flavor and very creamy. But again, not getting much flavor from the bun.
I also tried the Me fries but they are a little overwhelming with the egg. I could not finish it all. I'll probably stick with the Frisco fries.
The dessert potstickers are super sweet. So sweet they hurt my teeth somehow. Unfortunately I just can't deal with the sweetness, but I've only tried the smores potstickers, which are fried pastry potstickers stuffed with chocolate and covered with condensed milk and graham crackers. Maybe others are less sweet. You can try all three if you order the happy ending. Cute.
This is the only food truck I've encountered anywhere that does not include tax in the price. So bring change or expect to get a lot back. 3 buns are $6 without tax but $6.49 with tax, if that helps.
That being said, it's a new truck and has a lot of potential. It looks like they are changing up the menu and making new items. So I'll likely be back for the sloppy bun and other menu items. If something strikes my fancy, I'll definitely re-review.
