Dessert Truck Makes Its Midtown Debut Today!

The Dessert Truck is beginning its daytime operations today, and will attempt to find a spot on Park Ave. between 51+53rd streets from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Treats Truck is awesome, and Wafels & Dinges are nice, but the Dessert Truck is some serious shit. We’re talking chocolate bread pudding, molten chocolate cake, vanilla creme brulee, goat cheese cheesecake and more. Restaurant quality desserts, out of truck, and everything is $5.
As you know, finding a permanent spot is difficult, so I’ll keep you up to date on their progress. Welcome to the neighborhood boys! To read more about the Dessert Truck, check out this post on Serious Eats: New York.
UPDATE: As of 11:07 a.m. the truck has found a space on Park between 51+52nd.

Thank you, Zach for demonstrating why posts are written anonimously. Your Ashcroftesque, Department of Homeland Security investigatory tactics aside, will your readers continue to find comfort posting on your site? Or will it perhaps give them pause. I apologize for having made you expend so much precious time seeking our identities.
Because you do not run a responsible blog, you haven’t the verification mechanism in place to properly vet posts. I would submit to you that upwards of 80 percent of your posts have similar email discrepancies. I am certain that you are aware of this, as you admit to having a penchant for investigating ip addresses of dissenting posters.
(BTW, your intel on my ip address is misguided and incorrect, you may wish to re examine your tracking methods.)“This site is a community, and my opinion is no more or less important than any commenter who takes the time to post.”
I suppose this satisfactorily explains why you spend so much time investigating ip addresses of your posters. Zach, are you certain you want to devulge your tracking methods(t.m.i.) to your audience.
Zach, quite the pleasure dialoging with you as well. Matters not what you nor I post. The good people will decide and I am okay with that. I simply hope that’s enough for you.
call it a day?

Sarah Hellerman(emphasis on the ‘hell’) IS Heather Mills-McCartney

Happily. But just to clarify, I have no “intel” on your IP address- I just noticed that both comments (3 minutes apart, with two different names) came from the same IP, and one of the fake email addresses you entered used the URL from a Baptist Church in WA. Good times!
I do find it curious that you accuse me of being “Ashcroftesque”, but then imply that it’s irresponsible to allow people to post comments without logging in and providing personal information. Luckily I don’t have to spend much time making sure comments are real or fake because the site has a great community, that manages to police itself, and only occasionally do I have to jump in and point out comments like yours. In fact, the comments are almost entirely unmoderated. But I don’t expect you to know that, because this is the first time you (or your “co-worker” Colin Keeter) have ever commented on the site. It doesn’t take the department of homeland security to figure out that you have a beef with the Dessert Truck, and chose this site as a forum for your anger. That explanation makes more sense than your claim of being two honest Midtown Lunch office workers, slaving away at 10:30pm, before taking a break, and making two seperate comments 3 minutes apart. Post whatever opinions you want in the comments. Just don’t post the same opinion twice, pretending to be two different people. That’s all I ask. (This site only has room for one commenter with multiple personality disorder, and the regular commenters know who that is.)
Oh- and if I was truly fascist, I would have just banned you from the get go, deleted your comments, and called it a day. I prefer transparency- something you clearly know nothing about.

..you…you….you mean the hamster isn’t real?

Sarah and her co-worker are really late night sex-shop workers, loosely affiliated with Chucky’s Blow-up Doll. There’s aversion to sweets is due to a traumatic event involving a can of whipped cream and a suppository.

I’d bite your nuts off to *TWITCH* prove I am real, McBagel, but I hear from the ML ladies that you lack a pair. Maybe I could bite something else off…..but no, that just wouldn’t be my style

Ive tracked down the Hamster; real name Raggot.
Apparently.

Well played Zach!
-
Had the chocolate bread pudding yesterday…very very bueno!!! A great addition to the lacking Midtown East.
-
so, sarah, why does the truck blow exactly? have you ever eaten anything from them? ’cause you don’t say either…
-
oh man! the one day I’m busy at work and I miss all this! My job blows! The dessert truck, not so much.

Love how “Colin Keeter” had NOTHING to say in this whole ordeal. LOL!
You want me to bite his, uhh, her, uh, uhm….their nuts off, Zach?
