The Post wonders whether more brick and mortar restaurants should take their fare to the streets in the form of mobile kitchens. The story mentions Dangerously Delicious Pies (1339 H Street) and Langston Bar and Grille (LINK PLAYS MUSIC, 1831 Benning Road), both of which started on the H Street/Benning Road Corridor. Did you know that Matt Ashburn of the Capital City Diner (1050 Bladensburg Road) originally dreamed of running a food truck before finding the diner on eBay?

Doesn't explain why their fruit pies cost more than those are real gourmet bakeries. I guess is novelty. I avoid them after the first time. $7 for a slice of fruit pie... well I've gotten more out of losing money.
