The SoWa Market Scene

One of the cool things about the SoWa Open Market is the plethora of food trucks on hand every Sunday. The finest food trucks in Boston are on hand every week- there's something for everyone!

The Go Fish Truck satisfies seafood lovers.

The Bon Me Truck offers unique Vietnamese cuisine.

The Clover Food Truck serves up simple, healthy fare.

Little Miss' favorite, The Original Boston Frosty was on hand too.

Lefty's Silver Cart offers an outrageous grilled peanut butter and banana sandwich with a side of marshmallow fluff!

The Lincoln Street Coffee Truck will satisfy the need for caffeine. 

The Cupcakery Truck serves mobile cupcakes.

Boston Speed's hot dog wagon was on my radar- more on Speed's in another post....

Roxy's Gourmet Grilled Cheese caught our eye- they serve grilled cheese and Mrs. HDM's favorite: POUTINE! We shot a video featuring Roxy's- more on them later too.

I plan to return to the SoWa Open Market to do some Christmas shopping. I will probably sample the food too- there's lots of good stuff.

Coming Attractions

In the next week or so, I have a couple of visits planned. My new co-workers and I are headed back to Fred's Franks today for lunch and a Hot Dog Story. It will be a fun trip- there will be a couple of Fred's "newbies" in the crowd, so I should get some good reactions.

The family and I intend on hitting the SoWa Open Market down in Boston on Sunday. We plan on doing some early Christmas shopping, but the real attraction is the plethora of food trucks that are present each Sunday. The list includes:

BBQ Smith
Bon Me Foods
Boston Frosty
Boston Speed Dog
C-Cups Cupcakes & More
Clover
Eat
Go Fish
Grilled Cheese Nation
Grillos Pickles
Lefty’s Silver Cart
Lincoln Street Coffee
M&M Ribs
Rhode Illin Ice Cream
Roxy’s Gourmet Grilled Cheese
Silk Road BBQ
Staff Meal
The Cupcakory
The Dining Car
The Froyo Truck
Trolley Dogs

I am hoping Boston Speed Dogs is there (they post attending trucks on the SoWa Facebook page each Saturday). I haven't been to Speed's since Speed was running the joint! Speaking of Speed, my good friend Larry Joe of New England Firepit fame, is attempting to get me an interview with Speed (I will certainly keep Hot Dog Nation posted). I'd also like to talk to the Roxy's Gourmet Grilled Cheese guys- they are on The Food Truck Race and I'd just like to stop and say "hi."

It should be a fun couple of trips. Now that the summer is over, I will be toning down Hot Dog Stories to one per week or so through the fall. I have also begun to plan next summer's National Hot Dog Month Tour!
