One of the few recent highlights in the P.E.I. food scene, Saucy Bird hits all the right notes:…read moreStaff are friendly and attentive (when was the last time a food employee delivered an ice cold gourmet lemonade concoction to your car with a smile on her face and cute little notes written on your cup?); the food is fresh, cool when warranted, hot when warranted. It is tasty, carefully prepared, and the portions are fair. Consisting of Mediterranean flavours-- aromatic spices from Portugal - chilies from Africa and olive oil from Spain-- everything tastes delicious and healthy. Prices are in keeping with the curious inflation which infected the world during and after Covid-- and which has never been satisfactorily explained-- but my friend and I walked away wholly satisfied which-- let's be honest-- is not a very common experience on P.E.I.. The service on P.E.I. is most often surly and resentful (Hello to you, yes you, Willow Bakery staff in the Stanley Bridge outlet), and the food is often overpriced underimagined fried garbage. By the way, one little note on our cup indicated the Saucy Bird is an Indigenous establishment in which case we can only pray for more Indigenous-run restaurants and food stands of this quality in P.E.I.'s future. To add to the benefit of a visit, check out their partner in crime, Cool Clucking Treats a few steps away serving Milk Shakes and Saucy's own House Churned Gelato, Ice Cream Sandwiches and Home Made Cookies. This place is a gift to Charlottetown. Anyone considering opening a food truck/stand or a restaurant in P.E.I. needs to beg these folks to give them a lesson in how it is done right! Thank you Saucy!!

In reading all the national press about PEI's recent political debacles, one of the funniest public…read morecomments I came across was: "It's 11 o'clock in Toronto, 1953 in PEI". In many ways, this is true (certainly over at the Legislative Assembly, where Boss Tweed seems to have been reincarnated multiple times in the guise of an uneducated gang of greedy island fops). So every new food initiative which opens on PEI, whether it be a restaurant, a chip stand, or a food truck, is a small but very welcome miracle. Food restores the soul, and reminds us that there is hope. Recent rumbles of concern over in Summerside about there possibly being too many food trucks (uh, I believe they have three or four now... not exactly the Charge of the Light Brigade) is typically foolish small town politics and parochialism- it's just so darn silly you have to laugh or you will cry. So it is a very fortunate thing that Chef Norman, originally from Nicaragua, raised in Costa Rica, has brought his delicious concoctions and his warm and welcoming personality to the streets of this small island city. Menu items include a drop-dead delicious poutine with Norman's own home made gravy, beautifully seasoned pulled pork sandwiches, poboy sandwiches, fresh fish tacos, fried oyster tacos, a real caesar salad; and there's always something new which Chef Norman is more than willing to describe to you in minute detail (like the way he uses a local garlic guy's very own home made "black garlic"' liquified into a fabulous sauce. Mmmm. Mmmm. Gooooood!! This guy is a gem, and his cooking positively shimmers with inventiveness. Go. Eat. Live.

This food truck (food bus) caught my eye a few days ago while driving through Summerside, so much…read moreso that I made my way back just to try it. It is located in Downtown Summerside by the water, in a "Food Truck Food Court" - such a great idea as it provides ample seating and the ability for you or your group to order from more than one truck! I ordered the pulled pork sandwich and they were able to make it without coleslaw and they made it very quickly. The food was tasty and pretty good BBQ. The man taking orders was very friendly to myself and other customers!

After watching numerous episodes of Eat St and having a few food trucks open up here in Halifax…read more(though too far away for me to hit them at lunch), how cool is it that my first food truck experience was in my home town while on vacation. I didn't peruse the menu, wish I had at least taken a pic so I could tell you what the basics are. As soon as I saw the Crazy Fries and Aranachi Balls, I knew I'd found nirvana. Two of us ordered up one of each to share. So the crazy fries are covered in chunks of pulled pork, cheese curds, a cheese sauce and their own BBQ sauce. Talk about a big plate of artery clogging goodness! And the Arancini balls, rice wrapped around cheese, breaded, deep fried and presented with a marinara sauce for dipping. Really, what's not to like about all that? All of that with with a bottle of water and can of pop came to just over $21. It is cash only so come prepared. Nestled into it's own cradle next to the Butcher Shop at the north end of Central Street. There are a few picnic tables nearby. They have a Facebook page where they post some daily or weekly specials. As with most food trucks they have only so many servings of items available a day, so if you see something you like, get there early. It's kind of a good thing I don't have access to a food truck everyday but wish I could get here more often.

So you know that place that cooks the shit out of their fish so that the thin ends are chewy? So…read morechewy that you can't even chew them? That was my fish & chip special $9.99 The "two piece" ended up being 3 tiny pieces which only meant more thin surface area to turn rubbery and unchewable The chips were plentiful but not homemade, sone kinda frozen ones I think. The pulled pork was white and oven cooked, a big disappoint. I am all for the concept of food trucks, but only if the food is good. Will not return.

This vibrantly yellow truck on Pictou's waterfront has been piquing my interest all summer long,…read moreand I was finally able to grab a bite recently while in the area. The menu is mostly what you'd expect from an East Coast chip wagon - fries, burger, hotdogs and fish and chips - but it does have a few items to stand out a little bit, like deep fried pepperoni, mozza sticks and a steak sandwich. We areived close to closing time, so they were out of fish and I went with their cheeseburger instead. My wife chose good ol' mozza sticks. It was a short wait, and it'd ve hard to complain with the water views anyway, and we soon had our hearty fare. My cheeseburger was minimally adorned, with just the cheese and some fried onions (optional), although you could top it yourself with ketchup and mustard by the trailer's window. The flavour was classic diner burger, with a crisp crust from cooking on a flat top, and the melty cheese and fried onions were *chef's kiss*. A lightly toasted bun further supported these spot-on burger fundamentals. With apps like mozza sticks, whether at a food truck or pub, you know they're coming from a freezer bag. However, they were still properly cooked, with golden-brown breading and melty cheese inside. The flavour took me back to my days of crushing orders of these at The Thistle for dinner while working weekend shifts at Aberdeen Cinemas! While it'd be nice to see a few more specialty dishes and/or add-ons (bacon?!) at Mama Red's, mother definitely knows best and is doing what she does very well.
