MoCo Now Has a Mister Softee Truck, Just in Time for Summer

We learned recently that a Mister Softee truck is now traveling through the streets of MoCo.

Mister Softee is best known for their sundaes, cones, milkshakes, and cartwheels (ice cream sandwiches). They are also well known for their jingle, which they play aloud from their trucks.

The Mister Softee website shares that they are “the largest franchiser of soft ice cream trucks” in the US. They got their start in Philadelphia and now have over 625 trucks in 18 states.

Prior to the opening of the MoCo truck, the closest Mister Softees could be found on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and Richmond, VA.

The MoCoShow’s founder, Alex T., remembers there was a Mister Softee in the area when he was growing up, but MoCo has been without one for many years.

Sussy’s Food Truck Opens in Montgomery Village

A new food truck that specializes in Central American Cuisine can now be found in the Montgomery Village Center.

Sussy’s Food Truck is located next to the car wash at 19604 Club House Rd in Montgomery Village.

The menu features $2 tacos, baleadas, carne asada, pupusas, tamales, wings, and more.

Salt & Vine, which took ownership of Ricciutis Kitchen back in February, announced on social media earlier this week that they will debut a new pizza truck.

According to Salt & Vine owner Thomas Zippelli, the truck will be parked out front of the restaurant until renovations are finished.

The menu will consist of brick oven pizzas and a few salads, with beer and wine being added as well.

The pizza truck is currently going through the permitting process, but according to Zippelli it’s taking longer than expected due to COVID-19. As of now, no opening date has been announced.
