Coolhaus Free This Weekend, Official Launch Imminent?: L.A.'s famous ice cream truck Coolhaus didn't launch on April 15th but they've teamed up with Firefox to give away ice cream sandwiches all weekend long. Today they're in Soho, tomorrow they'll be on 43rd and 6th, Sunday Union Sq., and Monday in on 24th & Madison (12-4pm each day). A lot of good that does us! But hopefully this means the truck will be launching soon.

Ma Peche Serving Up an Eater Burger This Week: Eater's Burger Week is under way, and one of the special burgers they had created is here in Midtown. All this week Ma Peche (on 56th btw. 5+6th) will be serving an 8 oz chuck and short rib burger, topped with lemongrass-chili butter, pickled jalapeno and cabbage slaw, with a side of shrimp chips for $16. It's only served at lunch, and a bit out of our price range, but all profits go to Edible Schoolyard NYC.

Korilla BBQ Truck Number Two Coming Soon: Just got word that Korilla BBQ has plans to roll out a second truck in the next week or two. This means they will be able to expand their locations and hopefully park in Midtown more than just on Mondays and Thursdays. I wonder if this could also mean an expanded menu and shorter lines? We shall soon see!
