One of the coolest things I think we have added to the Bangor Waterfront over the years are the food trucks like Pompei Pizza which I have heard nothing but raves about how yummy it is.

Now granted I may not head down on an event day when I am sure all the concert goers appreciate the extended hours the trucks offer. But I do love stopping by during quieter times to enjoy the cool breezes off the water while I nosh on something warm and enticing.  It makes for a memorable afternoon.

So what trucks will be there this summer you ask?? Well, according to the BDN

Pompeii Pizza will return with  the familiar menu that has been served since its inception, along with weekly specials. Tried and true options include the perfect pepperoni pizza, a pineapple pizza with ham, pineapple and jalapeno, chicken pesto pizza, margherita pizza and the Pompeii, a combination of olive oil, sea salt, caramelized onion, Roma tomatoes, sweet rainbow bell peppers, arugula, asiago cheese and a balsamic glaze. Pompeii’s regular hours are 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday, with plans to extend hours of operation to 7 p.m. in the beginning of June.

Also Wild Cow Creamery’s food truck, owned by Sarah Wilder and her husband, Ryan Cowan, back for a fourth year on the waterfront, will have a weekly changing menu of ice creams. From classic chocolate and vanilla to more adventurous flavors such as Mexican Hot Chocolate, a chocolate ice cream with cayenne and lots of cinnamon, Zesty Orange and Lemon Heaven and even sorbets for the vegan and dairy-free folk, there’s something for everyone at the little ice cream truck. Wild Cow’s regular hours are noon to 8 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday

Add to that, Grammy’s Grilled Cheeses and Melts Food Truck, owned by Bob Cutler of the Family Dog in Orono. will return for a second summer on the waterfront with a selection of toasty sandwiches such as Oma’s, a combination of pastrami, sauerkraut, swiss and horseradish dressing served on rye bread, and Nana’s, a mix of buffalo mac and cheese with chicken and bacon on an artisan roll. Grammy’s hasn’t yet announced regular hours for summer 2016.

 

And they tell of a mystery wagon that is still on the books for approval. Wow sounds like we’re going to have some decisions to make.
