| - So I finally found some time to try the much praised Slider Truck. Almost missed the truck since I was expecting a large crowd, but thank goodness I caught a glimpse of it and there were no crowds!
The guys behind the counter were super friendly. They were happy to help out with suggestions. I ordered the Pep, Captain's, Caprese, and Yaya. Unfortunately they had run out of the pulled pork. I also got an order of my favorite sweet potato fries. My sliders came first 'cause the cook forgot about my fires, but no worries since that just meant my fires were nice and hot!
When I finally got to try these mythical mini-burgers, I was definitely not disappointed! They were tastey, so much so I literally inhaled the first three. Seriously, I forgot how to chew, the sliders were that good.
The caprese was the most forgettable of the four, still very good though. The Pep and Captain's were similar, both were very fresh, with the greens and tomatoes coming through. The super sauce on the Pep came through nicely, while the feta on the Captain's was a nice addition to the texture. My favorite however, was the Yaya. For whatever reason, maybe because I slowed down and chewed, all the flavors worked well together. The nice, hot and fresh sweet potato fries smelled incredible. Sweet potato with a hint of cinnamon. It was more of a dessert than a side!
My only regrets after my first visit to the Slider Truck, was that I did not order in multiples of three, since that is the most bang for your buck and they were out of the Porkie sandwich! Other than that, it was a great experience: good food, friendly non-pretentious service, super casual atomosphere.
