Clever name, eh? This ain’t no elementary bake sale, however: the partners behind the truck are a Columbia Business School graduate and a pastry sous chef (Le Cirque). Chocolate bread pudding, rhubarb-lemongrass soda and coconut tapioca with cilantro pearls. Again, no stale cookies or chemical-filled cupcakes here!

Ice cream trucks are a dime a dozen in New York, as are their annoying accompanying music tracks, but Van Leeuwen debuted their Artisan goods last week to drum up some competition. (Oh yeah, one of the founders used to be a Good Humor man!) “Artisan.” Yes, be afraid, be very afraid!

Recyclable cups hold flavors like pistachio, ginger, red currant and peppermint & chip, all made from local ingredients. Help the environment! I.e., go get some ice cream.

Take note, the Treats Truck moves around almost everyday and even makes the occasional trek out to Brooklyn for festivals and Park Slope kiddies. Desserts are of the cookie and bar variety: caramel creme sandwiches, raspberry brownies and oatmeal jammies.

Sometimes the coffee does taste like mud, or sludge, but the cappuccinos are half-decent. I wish coffee-makers could learn that strong does not equal great. Oh well. Competing with nearby Starbuck’s, they do a brisk business by my old subway stop, Astor Place.

I love the personal down-home touch of the vase of flowers.

Supposedly the Mud coffee couple split, and NYC Love Street Coffee Truck is the endeavor of one of them. A Mudtruck was rebranded! I wonder if the “Love” part is some kind of jab at their failed partnership? Being passive-aggressive, and making a business out of it is fantastic.

Belgian waffles with toppings like Nutella and Dulce de Leche are all well and good, but their cover was blown earlier this summer: the waffles are not made fresh, merely heated up when you order them. Peeps were mad! They’re still pretty good.

Location changes, so check the schedule!

Well, that’s what the NYC restaurant site Eater calls it! It looks like Wafels and Dinges, tastes like it too, but it’s not! It’s a former Wafels and Dinges employer’s venture! Let the Waffle Wars begin.

Who knew a pizza truck could survive, and with such a loyal following, when pizza is one of the easier edibles to buy wherever you are in the city? Jiannetto makes a mean Sicilian slice without cheese that is worth tasting.

But watch out, Jiannetto, a new pizza struck has sprung up nearby.

BBQ out of a truck, and all the way up in the Bronx! They’ve got all the regular fare: pulled pork sandwiches, ribs and smoked sausage.

The dude owns the adjacent autobody shop, if you happen to be in need of those services as well. They have a deal that cracks me up: a ribs, oil, and filter special for $34.95. Hello multi-tasking!
