One heck of a day at Patient First today. We rolled up right at 11:20 and the whole sidewalk had a line! It was our first visit and we had no idea what to expect. Got serving at 11:30 on the dot and I didn’t even look up until 12:30. Definitely going to be a great spot on our route. We will see you guys next week.
Same reaction at Hamilton Beach today. Got there, huge line waiting for us. We really appreciate the support!
We will be back at both places next week. Keep an eye out for the day and times. You guys rocked us today. Off to Snag-a-job tomorrow.

If you have been watching the “Great Food Truck Race” on Food Network, you know all about the surge in popularity of food trucks across the nation. The show is a new reality-contest type concept. 7 teams and 7 trucks started out in L.A.. They cook and sell their food. Each week, the truck with the lowest sales gets eliminated. Then they all travel to a different city and start over. The two final teams will end up in New York City to compete. Food Network is also doing an online contest, for America’s favorite food truck. Winner gets to go to the finals in NYC and has a chance to compete on the 2nd Season.
Please vote for the HogWagon. Text “FT35″ to 66789. You can vote up to 10 times per day. Help us get some national coverage and maybe see the HogWagon on Food Network! Thanks.
