Mattie’s-On-Site

Personally, I wish Mattie’s-On-Site would be Mattie’s-Off-Site because there is no way I’d ever eat here again.
I didn’t even realize it was the same place that owns the very overpriced hot dog restaurant on Fillmore that my good friend was ripped off at (and did not get her money back, despite uncharacteristically and diplomatically asking for it).
This stand is only at Larkin Square (I think) during Food Truck Tuesdays, and they sell Alligator meat (which I was never going to try), and Gumbo/​Jambalaya/​Etoufee, which is much more up my alley. The guy (same guy from the r-​raunt now that I think about it) was trying to sell me on it, over and over, even though I was already buying it. Best in the world he said. Best you’ll ever try, he said.
Well I found Shango Gumbo to be bad, Lagniappes to be worse, and I found Chester’s to be just okay but this one, this one topped the lot in terms of being perhaps the worst stuff I’ve ever put in my mouth in Buffalo (minds out of the gutter please), literally, I had 2 bites, and threw it in the trash. It was also something like 7 or 8 dollars.
This continues the trend of me getting really awful meals from food trucks in Buffalo. The Rochester ones are way better, and the Columbus and NYC and Seattle And San Diego ones are off the charts. What can you do? Buffalo food trucks are for the most part insanely overrated. I know food trucks are cool, but how people can really enjoy some of this stuff is beyond me. I LOVE food truck food but really. And I am usually very liberal with my 4 stars and 5 stars.
Matties On Site should change their name to Madison Sight because then they would move to Wisconson, and be out of Sight, and that would suit me well. Except when I go to Wisconsin to get butter burgers.
