While the first food truck was likely a chuck wagon or perhaps the Wienermobile, you could argue that it didn’t reach its ideal form until tacos got involved. We’ve got plenty of that variety around Milwaukee, all of which you can follow on social media to keep up with their whereabouts.

Ann and Tarik talk about a few of their favorites at the top of this episode, and you can find more in the taco truck guide in the latest issue of Milwaukee Magazine. Also in this episode, you'll hear a Dan-heavy roundup of other culinary news around Milwaukee:

Tarik and Anne talk Madison's Farmer's market, Top Chef and some sad news...

Because dogs are great, most Milwaukee’s eateries are more than happy to cater to canines — usually with a bowl of water or a couple treats. But a few have really stepped it up with proper dog-specific menu items or, in the case of this episode’s lead item, entire dog menus.

We also cover the rest of the city's culinary scene, including a couple unfortunate closings, even more Top Chef, the return of Dumping Fest and the debut of ... VeganMania?
