Metrocurean continues to ask the people behind DC’s newest street food craze what they eat when they’re not stuck inside a truck. Leland Morris, president of the wildly popular Red Hook Lobster Pound truck, fills us in on his favorites. (That’s him on the left.)
1. Â Anything from chef Bertrand Chemel and the crew at 2941 Restaurant, specifically love his game bird cookery and his Muscovy duck with huckleberries dish. I think this is one of the most amazing restaurants in the area.
2.  A turkey burger avocado wrap with a brownie and power booster smoothie from the Juice Joint Cafe. The turkey burger wrap is only available on Tuesdays unless you have some connections.
3. A bowl of mussels and a cold Leffe beer at Granville Moore’s
4. Calamari salad and a Ginger Snap cocktail at Matchbox. If this sounds girlie … well my wife did turn me on to this combo.
5. Last but certainly not least, Red Hook‘s own Connecticut style roll. I used to be a Maine only guy, but my tastes have switched lately. And despite being knee deep in lobster almost every day, I still love the delicious simplicity of this sandwich. I eat about three per week!
