| - The concept of this truck is awesome. The execution still needs a little work though.
I appreciate the trendy food truck craze that is currently overtaking every major city. I think it's awesome. Muncheeze menu is outstanding. There's a little something for everyone. You have the grilled cheese that includes pulled pork and mac n' cheese, or the one that has steak, or the classic ham & cheese, or a combination of cheeses and bacon. Everything in that last sentence flows so beautifully. I'm a cheese enthusiast, so if there is cheese on something I'm usually gettin down with the get down.
Unfortunately where Muncheeze falls short is the quality of the food. Unlike their sister truck Slidin Thru, they miss on a few key points. If I order a grilled cheese, there better be a lot of cheese on there. If I order your grilled cheese that includes 3 different types of cheese, THERE BETTER BE A LOT OF CHEESE. That was not the case when I ordered the Cheesy Lovers Delight (I selected American, Cheddar, and Mozerella). The cheese was barely noticeable, that was disappointing. If it had more cheese it would have changed my whole experience. I decided to get the combo meal, appropriately named the Munchbox Combo which included a tasty glass Coca-Cola and Mac-Bites featuring Holla-peno ketchup. The Mac Bites were a bit greasy and lacked a real cheesy flavor, so those fell short as well.
Another disappointment was that they were out of Lobster Bisque, or, they never really had any since we got to the truck 20 minutes after the windows opened. At first they weren't sure if they had Mac Bites as well. I thought the organization was a little all over the place this time around.
With the awesomeness of Slidin Thru I definitely had high expectations for Muncheeze. Unfortunately they fell short. Knowing that they are run by the iconic slider truck I will give them a second chance.
