3-27-2011



In a lot of ways, Cleveland is ten years behind other cities. Recently, it seems they've just discovered food trucks (all seven of them). Since it was something to do and there was a ton of fake sunlight, we went to stand in Black Friday-esque lines to get over exposed food. Actually, the lines for the other trucks weren't so bad, but I picked Seti's Polish Boys for the Food Network nerd appeal. A large part where I go when traveling is guided by the Food Network, and I felt it necessary to eat the Cleveland thing that was on The Best Thing I Ever Ate. I never go to the area this truck parks at, so today I stood in line almost two hours for a hotdog at the slowest food truck in America. Now I don't know if it was because I waited for hours in the cold for it, or because whenever I eat meat now it tastes 200% better, but this deep fried hot dog with french fries and coleslaw covered in cheese and barbecue sauce was really pretty amazing. And while it's pretty much impossible to mess up chili cheese fries, the addition of a little jalapeno pepper is definitely a bonus. I'm not sure that I would stand in the cold for two hours up hill both ways to have another one, but it was pretty awesome this time.

Nicole doesn't like hot dogs at all (she didn't even try a bite of the two hour hotdog), she likes dresses and having fun. She also likes coffee shops. Then we went to the other Big Fun to ruin my back and neck and look at each other from funny angles.

After nearly asphyxiating and paralyzing myself simultaneously, we went to talk to friends and listen to Tony Preto DJ at Wizard Church.
