BOLD BITE HOT DOG CART HITS STREETS OF BETHESDA

FAIRMONT AVENUE
RESTAURANT
GOES MOBILE

Another Robert Dyer @ Bethesda Row Exclusive

While the food truck market continues to expand, Bethesda's Bold Bite is entering the curbside dining phenomenon backwards, launching a food cart out of the existing bricks-and-mortar hot dog restaurant on Fairmont Avenue.

While world-famous chef Jose Andres recently made news with the launch of his food truck, Pepe, Bold Bite's venture is a more natural development.  In fact, Bold Bite the restaurant was originally inspired by co-owner Alonso Roche's memories of hot dog and sausage carts in Venezuela.  So, perhaps it was inevitable after all.
Bold Bite Cart
The cart made an inaugural run September 24, with New York and Chicago-style hot dogs on board.  Yesterday, it made another appearance at Wisconsin Avenue and Leland Street.

This is a good chance for those who work on the Bethesda Row side of town - but only buy lunch within walking distance (although I consider Bold Bite within walking distance of Bethesda Row, it just depends how much  lunch time you have) - to try Bold Bite.

Follow @BoldBite on Twitter to find out what days the cart is out, and where to find it.  It's a chance to literally "buy local," as your dollars "stay in the neighborhood" when you purchase from Bold Bite.
