Do they have those pay for water refills outside the grocery stores here?

There are water trucks, they just don't come around until after a really bad hurricane or other natural disaster. At least, that was my experience in Florida.

You know what this area is missing? Good Cuban food from a truck or portable trailer. I miss Miami!

Stick a water sommelier on there, and you have a million dollar idea! I can't wait to see the flights...

If you don't like the food truck lobster roll, you should try Luke's Lobster at 7th and F NW. Now that's worth it... comes with a soda and chips too. I think it's like $17 ? They have crab rolls too, a bit cheaper. Yikes, I want one right now!!!

Who would have thought food trucks, or cupcakes, would become trendy? Of course, they didn't think people would buy bottled water. Maybe some day sanitation worker fantasy camp will be the new status symbol.

Thanks and glad you didn't say "reimagined".

I didn't think the lobster roll was worth the $15...
