Great video Bruce.
I’ve started making fresh pasta when my food truck was down getting an engine rebuilt. It’s so much fun.

I told my wife I should have built a bakery in the basement and not bought a food truck.

[tony-ceqp]

Perfect social Media with the way about him, how he talks to us in this video!

[lindabedker]

You should run this video through obs and click the mono audio option so both of your voices come through both sides of the headphones. I make sure everyone of my videos is mono.

[prospectnyc]

man i want one of these in my neighborhood. what a neat place!

[LGZEE]

I dream of a place like this. Fresh Italian oils, meat, pasta on and on. I'd be throwing Lemon cello drinks on the menu. If I had the money I'd invest to put these in upper income neighborhoods all over the North East. If I get out that way I'm going here.

going to have to go...I live on the south shore.

[michaelmiddleton]

I am not surprised these folks are terrible at social media. But are they? I love this video so much. StayGroovy n Eat Something Good.

[e.b.]

If your food is excellent, you don’t need to do social media much. It should be used to remind people or to inform people.I think your time is better served making great quality products. I like the video because it shows how clean your place is.

[JudiChristopher]

Please correct me..
But... I didn't SEE the $15.00 sandwich...
Where did I miss that?

[calientecafe]

My brotha! Pick your 5 best sellers and let the market decide where you go. In the end every business will feed the other.
