MY EDMONDS NEWS Posted: February 25, 2021 613
Apps rule our lives these days. There are apps for booking a yoga class or a swimming lane at my local health club, apps that tell me if I’m exercising enough, how I am sleeping at night; my whole existence could be organized via an app, on my iPhone.
Since COVID-19 entered our lives last spring, we found ways to reduce contact with our fellow humans, and still carry on with our activities, like feeding ourselves. Apps play a big part.
One can order up meals and pay for food before arriving at the restaurant to take boxes home. And of course apps will allow us to stay home to receive our daily sustenance from various delivery options.

I recently reviewed food from the Triton Taste, the food truck that is an integral part of the culinary program at our local Edmonds College. I had a chance to have an email conversation and have a few quick chats while waiting for food with Chef Instructor Stacey Schwartz. She’s in place each week supporting the team of students who are cooking and preparing food for hungry customers that visit the truck every Thursday at the Dayton and 4th location in downtown Edmonds.

Readers need to know more about the rest of the Edmonds College program. During a recent visit to procure some items from the previously mentioned pastry case, at the café location on the Lynnwood campus, I met Chef Instructor for Culinary Arts Kevin Fogarty. He agreed to a chat on the phone and shared with me the details on the Capstone Project.

Owner Conor O’Neill says his favorite is tomato bisque, but also recommends the salmon chowder from Kelnero, and recently taste tested same, and says “ A perfect rainy-day meal.”

This review is meant to inspire readers. Many of us have a touch of cabin fever these days. Consider this a nudge. Get out of the house, into the car, pull up Google Maps and enter an address, navigate some traffic. Not always easy to find a new eatery, or in this case a new food truck. For your consideration I offer up options located in a nice community neighborhood in north Lynnwood or parked outside a brew pub in Mountlake Terrace.
Food trucks are a boon for those who tire of their own home cooking, long for something new, exciting, perhaps a bit exotic? I hope to convince all of you with these reviews, that it is worth the trip, the time, and that your taste buds will thank you for the effort.
