Last month we went down to the East Bottoms to the food truck connected to the Local Pig. It is called Pigwich. I had never been to the East Bottoms before. It is kind of mysterious - there are a lot of older buildings that look unoccupied, but still well kept. It is industrial - train tracks, the river, etc. - but then there is this artisan butcher shop and a honky tonk. Pretty awesome.
The butcher shop had a lot of meats. And a lot of butchers. I have been to similar butcher shops, and there is always a ton of butchers. If anyone knows why there are so many butchers at these places, let me know.
Attached is the food truck - Pigwich. There are like 5 sandwiches to choose from, with one being a rotating special. I got the Thursday special, a tenderloin. It was delicious. A hardy portion, but not one of those ridiculous portions where you need two buns to cover it. The single bun was a pretzel bun. It was an A-1, super-duper, tip-top, buy-it-before-its-gone, triple A rated, zero-down-no-credit-check, Cy Young award winning, Daytime Emmy nominated, A-for-effort, great-job-flossing-you're-cavity-free, pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey, J.D. Power and Associates best-in-class, I'm-going-to-Disneyland, diamonds-on-the-souls-of-her-shoes, come-on-down!-you're-the-next-contestant-on-the-Price-is-Right, ain't-no-thing-but-wing-on-a-string-from-Burger-King, second-prize-in-the-beauty-contest-collect-$10 kind of sandwich. And the chips were good too.
I also thought Sara's Bahn Mi was exceptional.
Wish they had lighting near their picnic tables. Otherwise nice job. 4/5
