Chow's Truck

And who says Indy has anything over Fort Wayne?

Can I just say, that I like the rapidly-growing concept of food trucks! It's a great thing when a small kitchen on wheels can produce creative, phenomenal dishes at a reasonable price. I remember when I decided to move to Fort Wayne, my first thought was, "how awesome would it be for there to be a tasty food truck in the city"?1 Years later, I stumbled upon Chow's Truck at the Barr street farmers market. Which I made add is a great way for a business-on-wheels to find new loyal followers or let anxious first-timers know they are in business, where they will be and for how long. OK, OK, enough of my quest for wheeled-eats. On to the delicious details:

Once you learn where they will turn up, it's not hard to spot the bright yellow truck.  I've found on Main Street for their Friday evening farmer's market, as well as beside 5th Third Bank on Berry Street near Coney Island.  They tend to stick to the same rotation of locations throughout the city, which might be updated weekly on their fold-out chalk board on the truck's side.  

I've had Chow's Truck three times now, and each time is as good as the last.   Their core rotation of meats (and tofu for you vegetarians in the crowd) and Asian flavors can be served in one of two different vessels: the corn tortilla or slider bun. I've enjoyed both and feel that it's all up to what you're craving.  Each month or so they serve up a featured taco and/or quesadilla, usually feature a local chef or restaurant. Gotta love the support of other local eats! I had their BBQ Brisket taco (inspired by a local award-winning BBQ-er) and just the other day had the Grilled Lamb Taco with Hummus and Salsa Fresca (inspired by local Middle Eastern restaurant, Mazza). Their specials are usually listed on the fold-out chalk board they post by the truck, so keep an eye out for new creations! If your stomach feels up for some serious devouring, add a side of the Root Chips. They are a wonderfully spiced and crunchy treat! Need something to wash all of this tasty stuff down with? No worries, they have plenty of drink choices iced down for you right at the window (although $3 for the large tea drinks is steep, in my opinion).

If you haven't tried Chow's Truck, you need to chase them down soon! Well, not literally, that would look silly. Try to find them when they're not on the move, which shouldn't be too hard.
