Lightning strikes maybe once maybe twice Oh and it lights up the night And you see you're a gypsy You see you're a gypsy (Gypsy - by Fleetwood Mac) As we walked into today's "Made in CT Expo" at the Durham Fairgrounds, the first thing we did was check out the food trucks because we were starving. I made a beeline for Aurora's Gypsy Café, because I wanted something different and this truck was about as different as could be. Check out the "Psychedelic meets Flea Market" look of their truck. Check out the sweet gypsy costume worn by their very sweet proprietor. And check out their menu for some very, very different types of cuisine. Their website describes their food as "homemade eclectic gypsy food... from North Africa and the Middle East to Eastern Europe and the Native American heritage, we offer dishes inspired by the flavors found on the Spice Road centuries past." So what is gypsy food? Think locally grown exotic meats like Elk, Venison, Wild Boar, Icelandic Lamb, Goat, Galloway and Wagyu Beef, Duck, Quail, and Rabbit. Think lots of locally grown vegetables and beans. I ordered a bowl of Gypsy Stew - a delicious and exotic blend of pork, beef, chorizo, cabbage and three kinds of beans served over wild rice. It was $6 of exotic bliss, made even the more blissful with some of the Gypsy Woman's homemade hot sauce. I loved every exotic morsel... On a side note, the only reason we even heard of the Made in CT Expo was because of Yelp. So it was fitting that as we strolled the grounds, we said hello to four fellow Yelpers that were also there. Ah.... the Power of Yelp.. read more

We spotted this truck at the Made in CT expo today. As a food truck it was fantastic. Lots of healthy options and a Vegan option as well. You can get pretty much everything on rice or a salad. We got the elk burger on a bun. Delicious and full of flavor. We also had the duck and plum on a salad. Again delicious. We wanted to try the whole menu! The staff was friendly, helpful and answered our many questions. Come to Hartford! read more

All I could say is BIG disappointment. The truck looked really unique and is what caught my attention, so I decided to try the pumpkin burger and my husband ordered the elk burger. My burger was so dry and tasteless I couldn't even finish it after spending $10. My husband's burger tasted like sh*t. The food was horrible and staff was nasty and rude. Waste of money. Stay away. read more

Being generous with the 2 stars, mainly because as the other review mentions the truck is pretty neat. The food however WAY TOO GAMEY. Literally could have passed as road kill. Tried this truck at the North Haven food truck festival, long line,high price, and was not what I was expecting. read more

I also may not need to eat for another two (2) full days because the portions are huge. But I'm not a quitter so I ate it all anyways.

They're one of, if not the, best barbecue places in the area. Dare I say, it's what The Cookhouse wanted to be (save for the walls and proper ceiling). Twins has a somewhat limited menu, though it's in line with what you'd expect from barbecue-only places; that being said, if you can't find something you like, maybe you're the problem. We showed up and ordered the brisket sandwich, pulled pork mac and cheese, and split some sides. Both entrees were to die for. I'm not a cornbread fan, but it was one of the better ones. The coleslaw was coleslaw (New England style, of course). The macaroni salad was the sleeper hit, though! Combine them all with their various sauces and there's something for everyone. Having Tapville Social there was a nice touch. I only had time for one beer, if that, so I tried the house lager. It's a house lager, no complaints. Everything else on the menu sounded familiar or was too stouty for a fatty meal on a hot day. Twins has music and events, so I'll have to go to some before they do whatever this outdoor venue does in the winter.
