 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Tips: <\/strong>Figure out what side of the hulking advertising sign is the order line and which is the waiting-for-pick up line. We almost cut the line by mistake because we approached from the wrong side.<\/p>\n

Where to Eat: <\/strong>The wonderful Norman B. Leventhal Park at Post Office Square<\/a> is just a block away. As the weather warms, they'll have cushions and books you can borrow at lunch time. And, 12:00 Noon \u2013 2:00 PM, June through August they have a summer music program. There's even free WIFI if you want to surf while you eat.<\/p>\n

Three blocks to the East is the Greenway<\/a> with benchs and some tables and chairs. Beyond that is the HarborWalk. <\/a><\/p>\n

Where to eat inside!<\/strong> The nearest spot on cold or rainy days is South Station, about half a mile from these trucks. <\/p>\n

Restrooms:<\/strong> South Station. And, you can always use Universal Hub's Guide to Boston Restrooms<\/a> to add a few other places if you know of them.<\/p>\n

Bonus points for:<\/strong> Making the best use yet of an unattractive traffic island. Now, if one of the nearby businesses whose employees enjoy this food truck spot would add a bit of greenery and maybe a couple of tables, this could be a pocket park!<\/p>\n
