Longtime followers of this site are no doubt familiar with the adventures of the Bene Bene Mini-Truck of Fairfax Village (one, two, three). Rumor has it the truck will be making a triumphant return to form at an opening this Saturday, serving up not only creamy gelato but also bizarre ice creams from Japan, which, technically, neither borders the Mediterranean nor approximates a boot when you think about it.

If the rumors are accurate, expect to see full details on this week’s Losanjealous BeneBeneBeneBenevolent Society activity list:

Upon hearing the news I tracked down the truck for a brief interview. He had the following to say:

“Realmente non conosco di che cosa nel Christ è voi parla, figlio di capra.
All the best, -Benebene“

In other news, I’ve been up to my neck in new food intern activity. The town is being canvassed as we speak. Stay tuned for the full progress report and a one-pager detailing the Losanjealous SuperFoodFriends Society…
