We first told you about Eat Wonky, a food truck which will serve up poutine and hot dogs, back in June. Last night, we were invited to preview some of Wonky’s menu items as they prepare to go out for full service today for lunch at Franklin Square, U Street NW tonight, and H Street NE on Saturday night.

During the preview, we got a real sense of what the truck is equipped to do. Without a hard-wired source of energy, most food trucks run off generators. They have a tendency to fail, and have led to many delayed truck openings and operating issues. Perhaps predictably, when the preview kicked off, the truck was having issues with their generator. Luckily, they have a propane back up. Even though it doesn’t get the food as hot, it does allow them to continue working until they eventually got the generator back online. Co-owner Jeff Kelley joked, “we’ll keep going even if the gas goes.”

“We’ll be back there with magnifying glasses trying to get you your food,” Kelley promised.

For all you cheese curd aficionados, Wonky’s curds are the real thing: they squeak when you bite into them. Plain dogs are $3, wonky dogs with poutine on top are $6, grilled squeaky cheese with crushed red pepper and basil is $5.50, and poutine is $5.50. Plain fries are $3, but those with nut allergies should be aware they’re fried in peanut oil. And if you’re looking for a sweet treat, whoopie pies from Treet are $3 (we’ll have more about those later).
