Fresh and Hearty

This deli on wheels just opened up shop about two weeks ago. Their paninis aren’t harshly pressed and they take them out just as the cheese melts, so they don’t stay warm for long but have a good balance of crispy and bready textures. The grilled vegetable panini had a bunch of fresh basil in it with walnut pesto, which made me sooooo happy. The Turkey Muenster Jam was also nice, and generous with the cheese. My favorite thing was the Moroccan lentil soup, which was thick and not bland or salty but still tasty and with a great orange-​brown color. I don’t see any salad menu when they’re parked at NYU, but they talk about them on their Twitter when they’e serving at other locations and apparently they’ve given away some too. The menu otherwise is pretty small, only around 6 different paninis and 6 different soups, but a good variety nonetheless; could get bigger. I highly recommend the combo option of a half-​panini and small cup of soup for $ 7, which is what most of their paninis cost whole. Stick around, truck! I’ll be back next autumn!
