DC Food Truck: DC Slices

*Post by Mark.

Like Los Angeles and New York City before us, DC has now been inundated with food trucks. DC Slices is one of the latest to gas up the truck and join the trend, serving up fresh slices to DC's hungry masses. Today, as the temperature crept over eighty degrees, we went for a lunch-time stroll and caught up with the DC Slices in Farragut Square.

 

The truck offers five different types of slice at $4 a pop, or a soda and slice for an even $5. Your options include Cheese, Pepperoni, Sausage, Hawaiian and Veggie. A nice little touch is the friendly offering of some fresh basil on your slice. 

 

I opted to give the Pepperoni (left) and Sausage (right) the old college try.

And Angela sprung for a slice of the Hawaiian.  Each slice was (kind of oddly) topped with a solitary tater tot.

Angela would have liked a little more crisp and seasoning to the crust of the pizza, but understood the limitations of pizza served out of a truck.  And the toppings were tasty and well-apportioned.  While the pizza won't be winning any Pizza Wars, we both thought it was solid street food. Some moderately fresh pizza and fresh basil really hit the spot on a sunny day.
