PUNTA GORDA — The lunch menu reads as follows: grilled asparagus panini with prosciutto and provolone; Asian-style pulled pork with pickled cucumbers and Sriracha aioli on a Hawaiian roll; and roasted portobello with arugula, bruschetta, herbed goat cheese and balsamic glaze. Healthy, sophisticated fare, you say.
Lest you forget that Saturday’s first-ever Foodie Fest Car Show at Muscle Car City is for people of all tastes, the food wagon next door offers (big breath): a grilled bacon cheese-stuffed meatloaf sandwich, topped with mac and cheese, and homemade ketchup.
