Good Eats: Bone Daddy's Burgers

I buy lunch every work day. Blame it on Pre-K through High School bagged lunches. I like to try new things but I do have certain restrictions: no pizza, no burgers, no vegetables (just kidding). Burgers and pizza are my two favorite things in life (plus the Babbler) so it made sense to cut those out to allow me to branch out.

For the past year or so I have been using the City of Boston's food truck schedule to see if there are any interesting food trucks in my neighborhood that day. Outside of the traveling Redbones truck and Grilled Cheese Nation/Roxy's (so similar I don't know which one I visited) I haven't really embraced their existence. A lot of the options are extremely niche: fish, cupcakes, crepes, noodles, etc. Good every once in a while but not anything that is going to have me clamoring.

When I brought up the website today I saw an interesting new truck I hadn't seen before: Bone Daddy's Burgers. I clicked on their menu and was greeted with 3-4 items that I immediately wanted to try. A short jaunt to Milk St. later and I've got burger in hand. I ordered the Mia, which is a cheeseburger topped with pico de gallo and avocado. It was so good it blew me away. I think I'm going to stalk this truck moving forward and take every opportunity I can to get another bite.
