Aziz Ansari: Right on Trend

I almost slid off the paper-covered doctor’s table when I found this article on the inside back cover of May’s Bon Appétit: The Italy Issue.


Although it’s a bit of a stretch between Aziz’s dreams and our Choo-Chew escapades, there is something here that has brought us a step closer to our favorite Parks and Recreation actor.


He was asked in the magazine's first Back of the Napkin Q&A, “You live in L.A., food truck capital of the world, what’s the scene missing?"


 
If you can’t decipher the handwriting, his reply is:


“You know what they need to start? A food train trend. So get this – you get one train car, an old one that is fueled by a wood burning engine. Here’s the genius – the wood would also power the wood fired pizza oven! I know nothing about pizza ovens or trains, but that sounds like it would be easy to rig. Maybe the people at Keste or Grimaldi’s in NYC can figure that out.”


You can find the rest of this "just-what-the-doctor-ordered" article here.


Aziz – if you’re listening – I know nothing about pizza ovens, or trains for that matter, but this idea is ingenious and I Love You!


Cheers!

  2. Cleanse be damned... I am now in serious need of pizza, but only if it is cooked in a wood fired train pizza oven!

    Loving the blog you guys! Am totally caught up and ready for another guest dining opportunity - I won't let you down this time! Better wait 'til I am back on the sauce (in every sense of the word!)

    Cheers!
