Our inaugural Friday Foodie Foodcart (F3) meetup was a complete success. Thank you Ashley, Clayton, Ray, Maggie, Sarah, Christina and Curtis for coming! We dined at Lucky's Puccias (pronounced poo-chas) on 5th Street next to The Tiniest Bar in Texas and together came up with a rating system that we will use to critique and discuss the food that we will eat. Also, the name of the group is a work in progress, but I think I like the "F" theme. I was thinking Foodie Food Cart because we are being "foodies", but also the Friday is helpful in that it designates when we meet up. However, it is a mouthful....
Great food, cheap beer, and fun music! And even better company!!! :)

I liked that there was a famous bar "tiniest bar in texas" next door. 2$ Lone Star pints can't beat it! Seating was adequate but I can see it being an issue on a busy night. I liked the feel. I felt like I was in someone's back yard but also in the middle of the city. Liked the fact that "Lucky" was making my veg puc with artichoke pesto sauce recommended with the sandwich. Lucky handed me my puc with "Bon apatito." I loved that! Stage for live music was definitely a plus, but we are in Austin. Bread awesome. Not ripe avo. Not so good. So the puc was soo soo. Bad avo equates to bad meat. Sorry Lucky your old greens and unripe avo just about out weighed your awesome bread and great hospitality. Thanks for cutting my sandwich and p.s. a soft avo is the true way to a vegetarian's heart.

Um, Lucky and me are like this! *cross fingers* I loved the walnut sauce which surprised me because it was kinda garlicky. As a critique, it really is just a fancy sandwich with fancy sauce. All in all though pretty damn good. Oh, and there was music!

First off I like the location because I walked from my apartment. I really like that its cuddled up next to The Tiniest Bar in TX (to get your drinks before dinner. $2 Lone Star). I ate the vegetarian, really liked the freshness of the sandwich and also how much only a half really filled me up. Great flavor and fresh ingredients, not too many options not too little options. I loved that Lucky made my sandwich. All and all I would come back, but won't crave it. - Ashley "Milla da Killa"
Price a little high for just a tasty sandwich with no side. Outdoors stage with plenty of seating. Smaller than a sub or burrito. Really good spicy red pepper and basil with chipotle mayo. $2 Lone Stars at Tiny's. - Ray
Truffle oil really made the sandwich. The bread was perfect in proportion to the filling. The ingredients were really fresh. Lucky himself was very nice and informative. I would definitely come back. The puccias were unique, light and delicious and are a really great alternative to an ordinary sandwich. However, I think its pricey for what you get. - Lisa
