    MiO, a revolutionary liquid water enhancer, just hit store shelves. To celebrate, MiO representatives will be handing out free samples to fellow DC foodies and culinary trendsetters at the weekly Farragut Friday food truck gathering this Friday, April 15th at Farragut Square, 17th and K Street NW, from 11:30 am to 2 pm.

    Just like your favorite food truck, MiO is completely portable, and it fits right in the palm of your hand. And the best part is—with MiO, you can personalize your drink. All you have to do is Flip it, Tip it and Sip it to make your drink your way. Add a little. Add a lot. There are six delicious flavors to choose from.

    To get a sample, all you have to do is show up on Friday at Farragut Square. Grab something to eat, test out MiO and enjoy the nice weather. If you are unable to attend on Friday, or for more information about our new liquid water enhancer, connect with us on Facebook (www.Facebook.com/MiO).

    MiO is a liquid water enhancer – you squirt some into your water and the drink self-mixes (similar to Crystal Light packets but with liquid instead of powder).

    According to Twitter, these food trucks will definitely be there:

    Food trucks that are likely to be there include:

    • CapMac
    • Carnivore BBQ
    • Sauca
    • Sweetbites

    3 Trucks were at the DC State fair today: DC Slices, Curbside Cupcake and the Sweet Flow Mobile (Sweet Green’s frozen yogurt). I didn’t get to Sweet Green’s truck, but I’ve tried their product at the storefront.

    I tried a slice ($4) and it needed more cheese (and to be served hotter)–it was alright for having come from a truck, but not great. The sauce was it’s strength. The person with me didn’t like the crust. I’d try it again. They were also out of everything but plain slices.

    I tried the lemon cupcake ($3) from Curbside and it was good…with the lemon cupcake and lemon frosting bringing different flavors and textures. Thumbs up.

    In other food truck news…The Red Hook Lobster Pound Truck will be at Chinatown Coffee this Thursday evening 9/2 for a happy hour from 630pm-830pm. That is…lobster rolls at 5th and H NW! Chinatown coffee will be offering $3 Lagunitas IPA and Dale’s Pale Ale. I’d love to see more events like this.

    Absinthe preparation at Chinatown Coffee

    BTW, Chinatown Coffee has several varieties of absinthe which they mix with water, sugar, and fire…it was like watching a ritual. 🙂 What’s a little toxin and psychoactive substance among friends? 🙂 BTW, I like anise…and I still didn’t like the absinthe I tried at Chinatown Coffee, but the variety I tried was herbal.  Next time Ill try the Swiss one.
