Episode 2: Food

Recorded June 9, 2016 in the Truth Bar

Does local food taste better, or is that B.S.? Can you open a food truck if you already have a brick and mortar restaurant? Does the future of restaurants involve no tipping policies? These are the questions (and more) that we ask in a special food-themed episode of Truth or BS, recorded live in the Truth Bar in downtown Minneapolis, featuring local food critics, chefs and entrepreneurs.
