The Stew: Florida Girl on Food Trucks in Tampa Trib

As I was heading out the door to work this morning, I got a call from my Mom. "YOU'RE IN THE PAPER!" (at least she didn't say it like, "um, you're in the paper..." that would be bad)

I mean, it's not like I'm in the paper for savin' babies or electing a president or anything. But I *am* in my hometown paper today talkin' food trucks with fellow foodie, hometown neighbor, Twitter addict, all-around-pal, La Cubanita Cafe mayor and food editor for the Trib, Jeff Houck.

Here's a link to the story where Jeff talks about the trend and how the Bay area's starting to catch on. I gave my spin on the DC scene and a hat tip to fellow Floridian, Stephen Boillan who slings Cubans from the El Floridano truck. Did you catch my blog post where he let me ride along? Man that day was COLD.

Follow Jeff Houck's Twitter, Facebook, and blog - trust me, you won't regret it! To follow all of the DC food trucks, check out Food Truck Fiesta.

PS. Little known fact. Jeff once tried to kill me. By challenging me to a soul food marathon over Christmas break. Read about it here - and go taste a Rib Dogg next time you're in Mulberry, FL.
