Philly Food Truck: Samosa Deb (Gourmet Indian Cuisine)
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor In May (2013) I started a food truck series with Farm Truck and went to New York to feature The Ditch Witch. Then I got rather busy interviewing Lee Daniels, Cuba Gooding, Jr and Yaya Alafia for the movie The Butler, and other great film/movie posts happened, and so, it’s taken me this long to get back to my Food Truck series.
