| - I have always been enamored by the food truck culture, but with my busy schedule I find it challenging to search them out. With that said, I was pretty stoked when I learned that our community center on base is organizing Food Truck Fridays. We had such a good turnout that 1 of the 3 trucks ran out of food early on. Fortunately we still were able to get some grub from Slidin' Thru, which was what I really came out there for.
What I love about their business is their website. I think websites for food trucks are their most essential tool, as it has to be frequently updated and easy enough to navigate. So from their online menu, I already know what I wanted to try: Plain Jane, Pulled Porky, and the Barby. I placed my order and was told about a 15-20 minute wait. I was a bit disappointed that their pricing is a little bit different. I thought you would get 3 sliders for $7 based on previous Yelp reviews, but it's actually $3 for each slider now.
I got the food and was instantly underwhelmed. Zero presentation was put into the sliders which looked, well, sloppy. I can understand if they were busy, but there were only 2 people ahead of me waiting when I ordered. The sliders were good. Maybe a little bit too much BBQ sauce for my personal taste, but the Pulled Porkie easily came out on top.
Maybe I'm being a little bit critical here but I was really hoping for a much better experience. It's my first visit, so I would still like to try their other sliders in the future. There's just a lot more food trucks to be experienced in Vegas so for now I'm moving on.
