Pound Ridge Food Truck Fridays: It’s a simple concept. You find a green patch in the middle of town surrounded by towering shade trees. Then you set up some tables and chairs on the grassy plain. Get a band and invite five or six food trucks and call it Food Truck Fridays. The Pound Ridge Partnership holds them once a month from May through September.
When we were there on August 16, it seemed like the whole town was there. Plus people we knew from Armonk, Katonah and North Salem. The Bedford School of Rock put on a great show. It was our son’s final performance with the band and they gave him a funny hat to wear for the night. After the food trucks and a snappy version of The Clash’s “I Fought the Law (And the law won)”, it was the highlight of the night.
There were lobster rolls from LobsterCraft, Walter’s Hot Dogs, crunchy fried chicken sandwiches from CraftBird, paella from Fire and Rice and most popular of all Hawaiian Poké bowls from Poké Motion. For dessert MilkCraft was whipping up their cow to cone, all natural ice cream from scratch using liquid nitrogen – makes it creamy. They’re served in a cup or in their Hong Kong style waffles.
Their July event featured a food truck from Shake Shack, Mark Mazzarulli’s (formerly of Opus 465 in Armonk) Three Little Pigs BBQ, Boxcar Cantina and Gyro Uno. The June lineup included Mt. Kisco Seafood, Salsa Fresca, The Foodie Bus, Crafty Cue, Skinny Buddha and Kisco Sweets and Treats! Finally the May lineup featured Hapa Food Truck, MOC Eatery, Walter’s Hot Dogs, Chef Zip, Leila’s Crepe Station and Skip’s Ice Cream Truck!
