‘Link’ up with Curbside’s new truck

What goes hand-in-hand with burgers? Hot dogs, of course—but the dogs served up at the brand new Curbside Links truck aren’t any ordinary hot dogs. Instead, Curbside owner Nick Hufft has been spending the last several months experimenting with handmade hybrid sausages—from alligator chorizo to house-made Polish and bratwurst blends, and a menu that’ll pair these unique links with tasty toppings that “push the boundaries of what we can create,” he says. When Curbside launched two years ago, Hufft says, the intention was to sell sausages and burgers—but the limited space made that impossible. This new truck, however, has been built from the ground up to do one thing: execute perfect sausages. With a menu that includes Italian sausage with marinara, mozzarella and fresh basil; Polish topped with Tin Roof “Perfect Amber” chili, cheddar and onion; and more handmade sauerkraut than you can shake cabbage at, it’s a truck that should fly to the top of your “must try” list. Opening this Saturday at Perkins Palms, 7248 Perkins Road, from 11 a.m.-2p.m. Visit Curbside’s Facebook page for more information.—Rachael Upton
